You are panicking. You can still take meds and (1) have a great sex life and (2) get pregnant. To think otherwise is defeated thinking.
I hate taking meds, too, as many do on this board. But people take pills for bad hearts, high blood pressure, too. GAD is a physical illness, too. Do NOT feel guilty about taking any med if you need it.
Meds are terrific. The long-term way of dealing with GAD is changing your thought patterns and lifestyle. Get that book BEYOND ANXIETY by Edmund Bourne. Best on GAD ever written.
Take care, Michael
