It would be improper (not to mention against forum rules) for anyone to suggest a medication to you. You should talk to your doctor if it's a problem for you.

i find hypnosis helps paul mckenna is a british hypnotist he does a cd called eliminate stress which u can use at home i do use it myself i found drugs from the doctor have many side effects and often were not that helpful for sp.Everyone is different though and if your doctor has given u any drugs keep taking them but i highly recommend hypnosis as it does not involve taking anything and is totally harmless hope this helps :)

Have you tried doing breathing exercises? Sometimes works for me when I can't get to sleep because I'm feeling on edge. Breathe in slowly, hold and count to 5 then exhale slowly and repeat 10 times. Make sure you breathe from the abdomen and take deep breaths. I should do these more often but I'm too lazy half the time.

but srsly no ppl here get proper medication for stress/anxiety/etc.? Breathing? Hypnosis? You can't get a serious problem with things like that under control. Can you cure cancer by doing breathing exercises? Srsly mental illnesses are as serious as any other illness. Go to a Dr. and see what he prescribes for u.

Meds don't work for everyone. If they work for you then great but there not for me. I've tried 3 or 4 different prescribed drugs and they did nothing for me.

Yup, that's usually the first med they try in the UK, best go back and tell him they didn't work and explore alternatives

The pills i have say they are for stress and anxiety and say they are suppose to relax you. They do help when im really stressed but sometimes they make me soo tired.

I thought beta blockers where only a short term solution? Like if you thought you were going to have a panic attack or something.

They are short acting compared to anti-depressants. They are generally used PRN(as needed) when used for anxiety.
