I have never taken anxiety medication, although I have been diagnosed with GAD by a psychiatrist. They offered this to me after I went through some traumatic events as a temporary crutch, but I refused because I have always had the mindset that anxiety would mess with my personality or brain chemicals or something(Code for scared). I have been this way for many years so this isn’t new due to the trauma. I have periods of time where I will go days with no issues, then I have periods of time where I will have days with issues. I started a new job this week in upper management and have had a lot of pressure but had no anxiety whatsoever. Fast forward to today( the weekend) on my off day I am extremely anxious for absolutely no apparent reason. This happens, sometimes I have panic attacks a few days in a row, sometimes I’ll go a month or 2 without them. It’s extremely inconsistent and nothing triggers it specifically. Is there a certain medication you’d suggest for when I do get anxious? Do you recommend I just stay away from meds? Any thoughts etc. I’m ignorant to medication so I’d be glad to hear your experiences and thoughts. Thanks
