>Are people just getting worse on meds?

Not I.

> I mean really. Does anyone here actually believe that these meds are doing anything positive for them long term?

Yes. I started taking meds in college because I wanted to go to class, but I had panic attacks as soon as I stepped out of my apartment, or something before I even left my apartment on the thought of leaving. Or I'd make it to class, only to have a panic attack IN class. Long term plus? I finished college. I can have my career. My career choice doesn't lend itself to taking online classes at home, so these medications at least got me back in the game. They weren't perfect, but it was a start. I continue to take meds because any time I have tried going off meds, I'm right back where I started, and that isn't so good for the career either. Those career choices that involve working from home did not interest me, so I'm going to stick to what I do now (with medications). For me, with the exception of Prozac and BuSpar, they have all been better than taking nothing at all.
