What types of anxiety medications are there?

There are so many medication out there to treat anxiety. In my opinion practicing in the Psych field is a shot in the dark. You try one medication and it may work or the patient may not be able to tolerate it. It usually takes about 6 months for bipolar patients to get the right cocktail. Meds are administered depending on the severity of your condition. Some patients just take a tranquilizer, others take an antidepressant and a tranquilizer. You just have to find what works for you.

Tranquilizers: Klonopin, Ativan, Xanax, Valium

Anti Depressants: Zoloft, Prozac, Paxil, Wellbutrin

I've only listed a few in each category. There has been much success with the SSRI Anti Depressants the only downside is you don't feel the full therapeutic effect for about 8 weeks. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is also recommended again depending on the severity of your condition. You learn how to breath through the panic attacks/anxiety, triggers, and how to manage stress.

How can I fix my depression anxiety stress and frustration?

Do something that can make you happy..

Something like jogging..

Listen to calm, soft and relaxing music. Try to meditate or do yoga to let your body de - stress and let your emotions run free. You can also try writing in a journal about what you are feeling, that will help get your problem off your shoulders. Sleeping can also help, giving your mind and body to rest, but if the situation is serious try speaking to a close friend or trusted relative or even a local counsellor or psychologist.

Just relax and DONT think about it the whole day, whatever problem your having. Think of exciting things coming up, maybe a holiday, or birthday. If the stress coems back push it away and think of other things. Then once you've done that for a day, sleep through it, take some breaks if stress ever comes back. But sleep really helps so make sure your getting enough of it!
