Anyone else not helped by meds?

[Guest]

Good morning all,

Here is link to a reference library link to the treatment of anxiety and what the expectation of treatment (homeopathic or prescription) and their possible side effects. The search field for use of specific supplements or medications will provide links to other reference library data.

As I read many posts on this forum, it is clear to me that many here are given medication that may not be suited for them and sometimes seem to either cut down their medication or stop all together quite often with out medical supervision, that then leads to other adverse reactions due to the absence of these medications.

I know that I have been there. I had severe negative reaction to meds that may have cost me my life. I immediately stopped taking the medication; however, I was scheduled to see my doctor in less than 2 days to discuss my side effects and the course of action I took. I now spend a lot of time learning as much as I can for sites such as the one I am going to link here, to determine whether the risk is worth taking, or at least make an informed decision about these matters.

There are many other things that may be involved such as diet. My wife bought the February 16, 2009 edition of First magazine and between pages 30-38 there are many dietary observations of how diet may be a huge factor in helping us cope with various nutritional deficiencies that may be at the root cause of many of the problems we may be encountering. However, before you jump off prescription medications you should seek the advice of your medical professional and do the research before you go through dropping or reducing medication, as many of these natural supplements may intensive or restrict the effects of many of the medications that may be taken along with prescribed medication.

I hate sounding like I know it all, because I don't. I am learning, and try to keep learning as much as possible and hope that my sharing these observations does not cause any of you any undue hardship.

It is getting so that I am almost inclined to say nothing and just pray for those that I am moved to pray for and leave at that, because I may make an observation comment or suggestion that may be viewed as insensitive, only because I am doing so, in some cases, because specific details are either not provided or expanded upon, and that seems to be the nature of many posts. It is not my intent to say anything that may be construed as insensitive or create any further hardships for anyone.

I wish you all a Happy Valentines day and that you receive extra special hugs, kisses and the love that each of you deserve.

In His Love, Hugs!

Meds helped me a little, but the side effects were hell. I am taking Xanax right now, but I am still a mess on it. I think I am going to try and go medication free and see what happens.
