Thank you for your question and welcome to AnxietyConnection.com.

 

I am not a medical professional and would not be able to give you medical advice.  If you are having concerns about taking medication, you should discuss this with your doctor.

 

Many people find medications very helpful in managing symptoms of anxiety. There are also other complimentary treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy.
