I don't usually discuss my anxiety and I think it's the first time I've posted in this forum, but basically I'm starting a new job in 2 weeks and I really can't mess this up. I've been in therapy and have been on anti-depressants, etc., but I still suffer from PTSD, depression and anxiety.
I was thinking about someone I knew who suffered from anxiety and who used to take medication prior to a situation that would apparently lessen the chance/effect of an attack.
I would like to know if there really are medications you can take prior to something to help control anxiety, as I am. I'm not talking one a day anti-depressants or anything like that as they haven't worked for me. Just something I take take before something so I can cope.
And as I mentioned, yes I am in therapy, I have taken a variety of medications, and am attempting to be treated. And I'm not looking for a quick fix (especially as I hate taking medications, so for me to willingly take some is a big deal, haha).
