Answer 2

There's an older tricyclic medication called Dosulepin (UK) /Prothiedin (US). Although it's an older type of medication it works particularly well at reducing anxiety. Many patients report no, or greatly reduced, anxiety after taking this medication for a relatively short time. Depending on the severity of your anxiety, your doctor might start you on 2 x 75mg a day, or 75mg per day, either as one dose or split into 3 x 25mg. It's well worth asking your doctor whether you might benefit from Dosulepin/Prothiedin if other, newer types of anti-anxiety meds haven't reduced your anxiety so far.

Answer 3

I have anxiety. I try not to take my medicine so much because it makes me sleepy. The medication is xaniex. I keep myself busy by doing all sorts of things. You can tell if I'm a really bad day by the knitting, sewing, or crocheting I do. The more difficult the pattern the more I feel my anxiety level is up, because I have to concentrate on the pattern so there is no room to think about why I feel the way I do.

Answer 4

Besides artificial methods like taking pills, praying, gurus meditation an relaxation systems, a new state of mind formed by a new point of view will go a long way in fixing the problem. Unfortunately, this is the most difficult one since the person will need a complete internal overhaul. It is well known that the cause for most emotional distress is found not in ours surroundings but in what we make of them. Judging by the fairy and old wives tales ours subconscious mind is programed from birth with, is a miracle we don't go trough life quivering and shivering down to the grave, they've not been to useful for mankind happiness and peace of mind.
