At my peak I was on remeron, a benzo, and lithium. I have been drug free for over 3 years and each year I am better.
They tried to put me on all sorts of meds. It was hell coming off and a doctor suggested I didn't appear to benefit.
What helped me the most? A good diet and putting dairy back in my diet. Yougurt and mild stopped my physical anxiety but it was a slow process and my sleep improved greatly.
I now have a lot of stress but handle it well. If I feel anxious I just say so what and tell the anixety to give me all you got as I know it will not kill me. It never lasts. I feel like I did before I had my first anixety attack. I am so glad I am off meds. Life is good.
