I have been asking around Bout if I need to increase my dosage or try a new med. I don't think I should still feel this anxious on an SSRI?

How long have you been on it And what dose ?

my doctor said that sometimes they have to use a couple of different types of drugs, it's not necessarily just increasing the dosage of one. a person may be lacking in both dopamine or GABA or seratonin or some combination of them.

I agree with Forwells on everything. We know Blessed for some time, and it is the same story all over again....Blessed I am fighting with anxiety for over 30 years and I am trying to live at the same time, but i try everything beside the meds, meditation, relaxation, yoga, exercise, dogs training,,,,, you name it. I am doing the best to follow my dreams, no anxiety will stop me:) I have countless hobbies. All the years of struggling, and I had never gave up. I have to live for the beauty of life, for my family, for my friends who constantly needs me....

Do you know what is causing the anxiety in the first place? Anxiety if born from fear. What are you fearful of?

It's a pretty long list

I am taking Prozac as well and I feel that it isn't actually helping anymore... I was going to ask them to up my dose but I started hypnotherapy and I feel like I don't need the medes anymore.. the anxiety is still there and I need a bit more help but i'm on the right path! Are you seeing anyone about your anxiety???
