[quote=Anonymous]SSRIs only helped me during the two episodes of my life I was in the pit of despair (PPD and another trauma induced depression). For my regular underlying GAD they've never done anything unless I was on an extreme dose and in that case it made me extremely apathetic and not myself. For occasional intense anxiety I take a low dose of a benzodiazepine but do my best not to rely on them. For me an SSRI will never be able to nip the anxiety in the bud like a benzo and I've come to realize that the rest of my anxiety management has to come from the heavy lifting of lifestyle management (good sleep, nutrition and exercise).[/quote]
