    • Close Anxiety

      I have suffered from anxiety for over 20 years. Just in the past year I found relief. It was so wonderful not to feel so nervous all the time! I tried many meds they did not help. I am now on Klonopin and Geodon and doing better. I still do have panic attacks but they are not as bad as they were .I noticed a difference in 2 days on the Geodon

      Treatments

      Atarax Working / Worked
      Atarax did not work for me at all
      Ativan Working / Worked
      Ativan made my anxiety worse
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      I have been on Klonopin for 10 years and it helps me alot. .I haven't really noticed any side effects
      Luvox Not Working
      Luvox did not work for me
      Paxil Somewhat Helpful
      Paxil helped with social anxiety but made me lose alot of weight
      Remeron Not Working
      I took 1/2 mg of remeron and passed out for 2 days it made me exhausted.
      Geodon Working / Worked
      I noticed a difference in my anxiety in 2 days I have been on it a year it also helps with Bipolar disorder and depression. I started out at 240 mg at night after 6 months My blood pressure dropped dangerously low and my heart rate dropped to 35. So now I take 80mg at bedtime it makes me very tired but it works.

      Treatments

      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      the heat helps but the pain comes back right away

      this works for me if i take it every 6 hours.but my pain clinic doc wants me to cut down to 2 a day
