I have been depressed for a long time, but after taking shrooms few months ago, l feel much happier and highly motivated and my ADHD gone , lost a ton of anxiousness and had a few epiphanies about how I should live my life. I decided to buy an ounce for backup, but haven’t yet felt the need to take any more since then.

I was reading a book about hormones. Hormones can have such a huge effect on the anxiety profile it’s quite incredible! The book called the ageless man. These guys who were suffering from depression, anxiety, diabetes, all were treated by simply putting the testosterone back into the normal range. I had my hormones checked and they were all over the place. As soon as my doctor balanced them, I felt fine. I felt how I did when I was 14 again, not having a care in the world and happy! My thoughts go out to everyone who is suffering! You’re all not alone!

I can say soda,junk food,fast foods,sugar,always made me feel like crap,no energy,irritated,depression, so I started blending my greens and fruit,drinking protien drinks,water,baked my chicken,for salads.watching things that are processed and full of additives, it has really made a difference in 2 weeks. Feeling awake,not tossing turning at night.i also take magnesium at nite wich is good for anxiety and nervous system,also b12 and vitamin d during the day.along with a women over 50 vitamin.

@Dulcimerist 3 роки тому
Have they tried you on a nightly dose of Guanfacine or Clonidine yet? They specifically target the "fight or flight" response by reducing the amount of norepinephrine in circulation. These are gaining popularity in treating anxiety and PTSD, since they have fewer side effects and don't have the same risks of addiction or dependence as typical anxiety medications. They can also address insomnia and prevent migraines. Although they're FDA-approved to treat ADHD and to manage blood pressure, the smaller doses they use in treating anxiety won't lower blood pressure that much.

Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

I think one of the worst parts about anxiety is that it prevents people from actually seeking treatment, be it fear of the actual social interaction, or the fear that your doctor will think you're just trying to get drugs, especially if you've done some research on your own time and bring up a specific medication, most notably benzodiazepines. On top of that, reading about side effects and experiences from other people online doesn't help either. When it comes to the side effects though, it's worth noting that many people are taking these medications and aren't having any significant problems. A lot of people sharing their experiences in online forums in most cases are going to be the most vocal minority who experienced negative side effects, so always pay close attention to the positives, because it has to have really made a difference if it drives them to go online and talk about it.

Meetai, If stress affects internal physical health visit a good psychologist. . Heal yourself. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety-stress. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes or more. Be as still as possible. Slowly negative thoughts will reduce and relax the mind. Patience is needed. During your daily activity keep observing your breath consciously. Do the above meditation daily. Anyway you wilL lose nothing but gain something. . Positive affirmations for 5-10 minutes before sleep also gives quick relief. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.

I did the same thing with my lexapro that I've been taking for 20 years now. I thought I could come off it and be ok. By the 2nd month without it, I was a complete mess!! I've had doctors want to take me off it and I begged them not to do that. The idea that a doctor might take it away from me scares me so badly.

Mindfulness, a calm environment with less caffeine & TV has been effective for me. Discontinuing anxiety medications is a very anxious experience; worse than what you think requires medication in the first place. Cannabis is a natural alternative for some folks as well. Valerian, Cava Cava & chamomile are helpful to many. Some form of centering meditation or just a few minutes alone can help to calm the mind. Writing out what one finds overwhelming is shown to be quite effective too.

I’ve been prescribed 3 different antidepressants for my social anxiety and OCD. I would give anything to get a benzo prescription, but doctors just don’t seem to want to prescribe it to me. I don’t specifically ask them, bc that’s probably a red flag to the doctors, But I’ve told them- I don’t want something I have to take everyday with terrible side effects just in hopes that it will prevent my anxiety. I want something that will GET RID of my anxiety when I’m experiencing it. I want that “I know it’s there if I need it” feeling. Just having that would reduce my anxiety on its own. And I don’t get that with antidepressants. I know benzos can be dangerous, but to me it seems way less dangerous to only take them when you need them, instead of putting 2 different antidepressants in my body EVERY DAY that is doing who knows what to me

My 34 year old son is a big guy and had terrible side effects from Xanax that made him feel worse. I’m very grateful that Valium has been so helpful for him getting some decent sleep and being able to interact with people at his place of work. Now he’s in Texas and hasn’t been able to find any mental health support for his anxiety and it’s really frustrating and discouraging. He tried some high quality CBD tablets, but he doesn’t notice a big difference, but he might need to wait a while to get the right dosage.

I began to develop Anxiety symptoms when in my late teens. At first, it was an extreme feeling of unease around people. I was put on 5mg Diazepam and found instant relief. I have been on and off them ever since. I am now in my mid 60's. My father was an extremely bad tempered man, who caused my and my mother a lot of stress. In the late 80's I was taken off them. But I began to gravitate towards alcohol, getting through at least 3 bottles of gin a week. My then Doctor put me back on Diazepam at only 2mg and they did take the edge off the Anxiety. My father has since passed away, and my mother is now severley invalid, and needs 24/7 care. And the Doctor who originally prescribed the pills has just retired. So, guess what? the other Doctors have put me on a reduction program, which means that I will eventually be taken off them completely. My fear is that I will return to alcohol to find some relief. I live in the UK and Benzodiazepines are frowned upon by most Doctors. I just don't know how I can go on without stress relief, as my my is very demanding, and needs to to do just about every thing for her.

@@simonram8505 Not really, since it's low dose Clonidine (0.1mg or 0.2mg) before bed to treat issues such as anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, ADHD, and other issues. The mild effect on blood pressure that low dose Clonidine has helps to mimic the normal decrease in blood pressure that happens during sleep, which is why it's a popular medication to treat insomnia in children as well as adults. My blood pressure has actually increased a bit on low dose Clonidine, since it reduces blood pooling in the legs and increases the blood volume in circulation. The dosing for using Clonidine to manage high blood pressure is higher doses taken throughout the day, which is when you start to see a more noticeable effect on blood pressure.

Focus your awareness from your heart not your brain. Awareness from the brain creates overthinking that will lead to these symptoms. Doing it from the heart allows you to let go. 😊

Paroxetine (Paxil) has done wonders for me. Example: years ago. a visit to the dentist would cause me to take the rest of the day off of work, as the anxiety would wear me out. These days, no problem, I just go back to work like nothing happened.

I have extreme anxiety and Panic attacks...I cannot control when it happens..some days are awful, and some bearable. The problem is when I have several days or weeks of the severe ones ...for really no reason or trigger...by body does start to become addicted and it's absolutely horrible when that happens.

@justchillincedarrapids The buspirone was somewhat helpful but didn't fully relieve the anxiety. I was also prescribed Hydroxyzine for anxiety too, and now I feel like everything is being managed and under control. Currently my medications are Fluoxetine at 40 mg daily, buspirone 30 mg daily, and hydroxyzine 25mg when needed.

I swear sometimes it’s the environment not the individual. USA culture is very toxic. Whites only hang out with whites. Blacks with blacks. Hispanics with Hispanics. As an immigrant, you don’t fit in anywhere and as a result you’re isolated and lonely which leads to depression and anxiety.

Had a mental breakdown on Wednesday, seen the mental health team (UK) and I need talk therapy, psychotherapy and very likely medication. I've struggled for years going round & round in circles. I'm at the point where I'm losing my Mrs and family through stress anger anxiety and inevitably depression. I know what I need to do in life but it's too difficult to take the first step which makes me more anxious, more stressed, more guilty and more depressed. I'll try and see if I can find one of these to help me until the MHT get things rolling for me but until then Im just falling deeper and deeper into darkness

Pro Tip: if you need Benzos, don't go to a Psych and ask for a long term script. Ask to help with tapering. They'll start at whatever dose you're taking very very slowly lower the dose. This was my experience anyways. First Doc said no right away and didn't charge me for the appointment. Second doctor said she'd taper me and I've been with her for 6 months barely gone down

After taking Wellbutrin for 14 years, I realized it has been causing me terrible anxiety. I stopped taking it and although I find myself more tearful, I no longer have to take clonazepam during the day. Trade off. All antidepressants, especially SSRIs cause me anxiety. Propranolol helped get me off of clonazepam.

Brabara, Never take Benzos as they are addictive. SSRI medication is better but of low dosage. If stress affects internal physical health visit a good psychologist. . Heal yourself. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety-stress. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes or more. Be as still as possible. Slowly negative thoughts will reduce and relax the mind. Patience is needed. During your daily activity keep observing your breath consciously. Do the above meditation daily. Anyway you wilL lose nothing but gain something. . Positive affirmations for 5-10 minutes before sleep also gives quick relief. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.

I don’t like clonidine unless you have high blood pressure. You’ll find yourself passing out and getting dizzy did nothing for my anxiety, they also put me on gabapentin. Oh, and don’t forget you’ll be on an anti-depressant before you know it because those are off label anxiety meds too. I’m on four off label anxiety medication‘s and I still have anxiety. I did my best when I had a Ambien in a panic pill as needed. Now I’m on four medication‘s for one issue that still unresolved very disappointed, but hopefully it works for you. Be careful though read all the side effects.

It’s probably a better idea to find a better therapist that will wean you of meds and actually try to get to the root cause of your anxiety! Many doctors like to throw a pill to mask the symptoms of mental health issues, and while that may help temporarily, meds can only do so much! - fun fact: all the studies regarding SSRIs/antidepressant’s, and anti anxiety medications were only ever APPROVED for short term use as a TEMPORARY BANDAID only for EXTREME CASES of anxiety, and it’s supposed to be used ALONG with therapy. As therapy progresses, you’re supposed to be gradually weaned off the meds so you can live a more normal life. Sadly many doctors and psychiatrists want to keep you on these drugs long term despite the fact that SRRIs were never approved nor designed for long term use. They also prescribe them for even the most mild anxiety to temporarily suppress the symptoms, despite the fact that SRRIS are actually supposed to be last resort/nothing else is working! Many doctors are sadly lazy af
