The Wellbutrin and Buspar I take daily and if I forget to take it or it gets late in the day and I haven't taken it yet, I say “oh yeah, I haven’t taken my anxiety medication yet” I take it and feel better. I use the Xanax when I am having beginning symptoms of a panic attack and that helps alleviate those symptoms within 20 min. I also am finding talk therapy to be a tremendous help with why I am having anxiety in the first place. The Xanax helps then because talking about these problems brings them to the surface, but I trust the process and can identify that it is the talking about my issues that is why I am more anxious. So I guess in response to your title question, a well rounded cocktail of medications is what works for me.
