I am on quite a few drugs; my psych meds are effexor, seroquel, trilafon, lithium, artane, pepcid and like 2 or 3 other meds for side effects and non psych stuff. I have been on a few benzos prescribed by docs here and there. Was more recently on a prn of 50 mg of seroquel twice a day for anxiety but my last hospitalization 2 weeks ago the admitting doc got rid of it and said I was running away from my problems and stuff. I assume that maybe it's because of substance use; where I did a minute amount of cocaine, some pot and was drinking here and there a little. I had such an anxiety attack on the fourth; it was absolutely horrible. I cried and was shaking and was absolutely terrified I felt like I was going to die; and at the time that felt like it would have been a welcome change. Anyone have any suggestions? Are there any alternatives like natural remedies or anything or maybe something that my doc might be willing to prescribe? Any advice is appreciated.

I'm sorry you're suffering. Ask your doctor about Neurontin (gabapentin.) It is nonaddictive with little or no side effects and works like a charm.
Best, Okie
