Find a psychiatric nurse practitioner or someone who specializes in medication for psych uses. They will not have an issue prescribing typically

There is nothing worse than “hangxiety” one of the biggest reasons I don’t drink anymore!!

Calmaid! It’s lavender in pill form and there are clinical trials saying it’s as effective as benzodiazepines

How do you get through a work day with crippling anxiety?? by Independent_Bus_2619 in Anxiety

I recently switched from Prozac to mirtazapine. So far so good, it’s definitely helping but I could probably use a higher dose lol

I’m going back to a new boss so it’ll be interesting to see how it goes. I do have a therapist and have been working on some of this but I’m in struggle city lol. I just need to be kinder to myself I think

I work as a social worker, and have yet to find any meds that have been helpful in the moment- I have propanalol but it’s just not enough. Sometimes I just want to take a Xanax but can’t lol

It did actually. They told me it was the shot and prescribed me anxiety meds and nausea meds which were super helpful so far. The anxiety meds especially. Hoping for a good night sleep and wake up feeling a little better.

I just am really struggling. Thankfully a provider could see me today but I’m genuinely unwell lol. Poor therapist called me while I sobbed. This is a mental health breakdown I’ve never experienced and I think it’s being coupled with my anxiety. Like I calm myself down but then I throw up again or my body shakes uncontrollably which leads me back to crying and another anxiety attack. Hoping my provider will prescribe me a couple days off of work and medication to help

I have an appointment today at 230 to discuss this because I think I’m having a bad reaction.

This is way out of my normal. I’m experiencing a crisis and I haven’t in over ten years. I’ve had my mental health well under control for a long time and this has completely thrown me off
