Lifelong anxiety disorder…advice?
i’m 19 but for my whole life i’ve had anxiety disorder…it got worse when i was 11 and started having panic attacks. my teenage years were a nightmare and i got no treatment. i began therapy last fall and in february i started zoloft, but got off it in june because while it stopped my physical anxiety attacks…it made me manic and then depressed. it was pretty unpredictable.
i started taking vitamin b-12 a couple days ago, so far no cigar. exercise and stuff helps but never lasts for too long.
i’m not sure if i try herbs or try a mood stabilizer as i have mood swings too, and they help anxiety.
can anyone relate to my situation? and what do you do for it?
i’m frustrated.

Love It Paxil has been great for me, for my social anxiety and agoraphobia… but not for panic attacks. I am feeling much better, more confident, and happier in general since being on the Paxil. But still… I keep having sleepless nights and panic attacks. For this, my doctor has put me on lorazepam, which I just started.
I am handling things much better now though with the paxil… and have found it much more helpful than Zoloft and Prozac. It has enabled me to be social again and leave my home in peace without worry or fear.
GAD, or generalized anxiety disorder, is like being in a chronic or continued state of worry and anxiety. This can be a specific as a mother’s concern for her child who walks to school everyday. Or as general as being constantly worried about anything or everything you need to do during the day. Understand were not talking about general concern about safety crossing the street. Understand that there are varying degrees of almost any mental illness. While most people suffering from generalized anxiety disorder are able to continue to function, some are paralyzed by the fear of making any decision.
