Answers:
I've had anxiety for a number of years and for about 3 years I did not have the health insurance to see a doctor so I was on my own. So through some of my worst anxiety I had to do it on my own.
I recommend having someone who is supportive whether it be family, friends, or a therapist. There are lots of books out there to help with anxiety. Try going to the library flip through some and see if any catch your eye. A lot of them can give you advice on how to calm your self in a situation. There are also herbs out there for anxiety. All though it's no miracle cure some of them can help you to relax so you're not so tense. I took one called htp5 and for calming me it worked the best. Also it never gave me any side effects like meds did.
No, I take Xanax, and I'm a mess without it. Why try to go at it alone when there are lots of meds to help?
Ask your doctor about Effexor XR. I also have generalized anxiety disorder and have been taking Effexor for about 5 years. Don't try to manage your stress alone.. there is help out there and you CAN feel better! Effexor has little or no side effects.
have you thought about seeking counciling, i know it is an old cliche but it does help and your desire to stay off medication will be helped hopefully, sorry to hear about the loss of your baby.. have you mourned this loss? if not your anxieties may be because you haven't come to terms yet with the loss of the baby.. give the baby a name and if he/she is buried or has a place of rest then visit , talk to the baby's grave cry and even get angry as to why this baby didn't live for you to love, this works it may at first make you feel stupid but persist with it and you will come out a very stronger person and your baby's memory will live with your love forever.
I've had diagnosed anxiety and depression and it has lessened so much that I haven't taken any medicine for two years now. But, if I felt those overwhelming anxiety feelings again like I did when I left my ex (who was pretty much the main cause for my extreme stress), I would seek help. Medicine is to help through rough times, many stay on it longterm, others don't. Since you've been through recent trauma, it can help you calm those jittery feelings so it's a good idea. Don't judge yourself harshly for taking them. Be kind to yourself, and do what is best for you, to make life more bearable in a difficult time.
