Unfortunately, there are not a lot of good treatments for GAD. If you don't respond to SSRIs, you really have few options. Buspirone is hit or miss, doctors don't like to use benzodiazapines. What's left, hydroxyzine? Many patients end up self medicating because they're not getting adequate relief.

The way my anxiety disorder comes out is like this. I am sitting in a situation that should be relaxing, a day off, road trip with my family, a nice dinner with my wife or even being at work sometimes. And I cannot help but feel as though something bad is going to happen or that I forgot something or some other nagging feeling. Everything is okay, I should be relaxed, but I am sitting there constantly worried about nothing in particular.

Been on nearly every SSRI, benzo and SNRI on the book, ultimately Adderall is what helped my anxiety. It helped quiet my mind and get things together. Been on it many years and was very reluctant to take any stimulants knowing my anxiety history..but it really has helped so much. I also work out and eat well. I took Seroquel once for anxiety and it was by far the worst experience of my life. I know some people have success from different meds but it was truly terrifying. Great video. Thank you!

adderall and klonopin are the no.1 drugs for almost all forms of anxiety in my opinion, two completley different feelings but they work the best, almost impossible to get these drugs in my country yet doctors will gladly prescribe beta blockers, non-benzodiazepines // SNRIs // sleeping pills etc. without even properly getting to know their patient. Make sure you don't ruin what you got there because I've been trying for so long to get the meds I KNOW work for me and i've had no luck. Up again all night with insomnia to call my GP in the morning to let him know the propranolol i was prescribed for severe panicking, muscle cramps and intense anxiety does nothing but make my damn feet cold and chest tight.

Also I went over the Prince of Wales bridge from Wales into England months ago....and inside I completely freaked out.....heart rate increased, hands all sweaty...it was AWFUL..and of course I had no choice but to carry on driving..........and this was all because my perception of the bridge was that it was SUCH an OVERWHELMINGLY HUGE site, REALLY TALL AND HIGH..out in the open that my system just couldn't cope with it. Hell I can't even do a long distance driving job coz I just can't cope with being miles n miles out of my comfort zone.

After all these years they still haven’t came up with a long term solution for this severe anxiety disorder? It’s sad. Benzos work so good but they don’t want to hand any of them out. Smh. I feel so helpless

The anxiety started at the age of 33 with a panic attack, I have spent 24 years of my life in this brutal suffering, I have tried all the antidepressants, nothing works, only clonazepam helps me a little, my life is ruined, my self-esteem is low. the ground, not even God listens to me, I have tried to brainwash myself by telling myself a thousand times that I should trust, suffering 24/7, nothing makes me happy, I feel hopeless, my doctor doesn't even want to see me, the only hope for me now is to take propanilol to test if you can block the fight or flight adrenaline pattern, this symptom occurs especially in the mornings. It's not worth living like this, it's too much suffering! bestial!! I would like to do so many things, projects, find a boyfriend, travel, enjoy a simple walk! I want to be happy again, i was athletic, but doesn’t work nothing,,but 24 years of my life have already passed and I am exhausted, I don't know if the doctor has compassion and gives me propranolol at least to see if it works, im dying inside, I don't see a way out, die and rest maybe... ..😞

Doctor I just listened to your video of "Depression The Basics" and you mentioned we have no way of knowing why the depression is, Do you know or think anything about the testing of Doctrs Data?They measure the neurotransmitters through urine to help the doctor know what the deficiencies are. I also have the MTHFR gene which causes my body to not be able to use the neurotransmitters I have naturally occuring. THis was a Genesite testing. Can you please let me know what you think.I have been diagnosed with MDD and GAD>,

I have panic attacks daily and anxiety all day long I used to have Ativan and Clonopin now Kaiser has decided that those are bad drugs taking them away from everyone and now I’m in pure hell if I’m not having a panic attack I’m terrified one’s going to come on benzodiazepines stops them in their tracks and provides quality of life for someone like me but Kaiser doesn’t care at all they will not give me anything because they’ve decided that all benzodiazepines are bad

Has anyone here tried TMS therapy? A lot of doctors claim that it is the most brilliant and effective one without almost any side effect and they also claim that it works very fast and extremely effectively. One of them claimed once that all of his patients who have undergone this treatment are extremely satisfied with the results now. I haven't tried it yet due to the reason that it's a little expensive. Of course, way more expensive than medications. Anyhow, some doctors highly recommend this therapy.
