I would just like to find out what others take that actually works without making symptoms worse before they get better.

Medical marijuana edibles calms me , mellows me out , helps with pain and takes the edge off. Yoga and music and swimming as well. I try not to add more drugs to the mix as I’m on enough as it is.

I’ve been on cymbalta for years but had bad anxiety after double hip replacement from mm lesions. Doc put me on Ativan. Really helped

I'm ok in the woods, lol
I see/speak to my Oncologist Thursday but he'll probably refer me to my G.P.
Anything that helps and still lets me walk in a straight line.....without shuffling lol.
I never experienced anxiety before now.....that I know of, so I'm glad I have you all to ask before talking to whoever would prescribe meds. It's nice to get opinions and experiences. I'm another one that thought people who have depression or anxiety, should just snap out of it....ya know? Some of us have to learn the hard way. Thank you Donna. I'm going out amongst the woods now, just to breathe. It helps....but only while I'm out there.
If it ain't one thing.... "Id Est Quo Id Est".
Staying off the computer might help too......I answer every darn " DING", so I'm turning it off.😉💛
