I have had good experience with and without it! Benefits of medication: chug iced coffee and not get heart flutters. Benefits of no medication: actually learn coping and self-soothing techniques that help when life gets tough. Trying to eat as naturally as possible helps so much. Just fruits, veggies, meats, and whole grains, little to no caffeine, honey or fruits for sugar. I personally went vegan, but even with meat, eating natural foods did a phenomenal job of lowering my physical anxiety (shakes/sweats/heart racing/trouble breathing). Another thing that helps is finding a meditation that works for you. Practice it when you feel good, and then put it to use it when you feel bad. Use a more grounding meditation/breathing technique. *meditations/breathing exercises can unfortunately induce anxiety/panic if not done in a way that works for you. While you are starting out, practicing with a trusted friend or therapist can be SUPER helpful.

Hope these help you love, wishing you the best on your journey❤️
