I have tried a few different medications for anxiety over a year and a half when I started to get anxiety. It doesn't seem like a respond to medication as well as other people I hear do. I take xanax also and it works but that is a muscle relaxent and is supposed to be temporary.
Has anyone else tried different medications overtime that just don't seem to work?
Advice anyone?
Hi Chai,
I have been on several medications. You almost have to keep trying until you find one that works for you. I am on Lexapro and Xanax. I take the Lexapro during the day for my anxiety and i take the xanax at night to help me relax because lately i've developed insomnia.
The doctor started me on the lowest dosage of Lexapro which i had no side effects from but still it really wasn't helping me to relax. I was having migraines and my blood pressure was through the roof. So she increased the dosage and it's helping some. But it's a daily struggle.
So my advice is to talk to your doctor until you find the right medication for you.
