I'm going to try to keep this short. I have anxiety, it gives me seizures that can't be treated with medication and I also have chronic constipation that doesn't respond to dietary choices or laxatives, I suspect my anxiety is causing the constipation as well.

 I'm scared to try medication for anxiety. I don't want to become addicted to benzo's and I don't want to live on antidepressants for the rest of my life. 

 I've tried alot of natural things like talk therapy, herbal supplements, brain supplements like 5htp, CBD oil, journaling and meditation, etc. 

 What would you say is the point where you realized/accepted that you needed help from medication?
