I suffer from severe anxiety among other things. If xanax didnt exist I probably would’ve gone insane and peeled my own skin off by now. Lately, I can’t sleep. Let me correct that, It won’t let me sleep. Every time I start to relax my heart rate increases and I feel like I’m going to vomit. This anxious demon inside me is getting angrier. I can’t think of my future without almost having a panic attack. My death seems to cause me less concern than my prolonged life.
How do you quell a monster that you can’t control? I’m tired of the anxiety and the fear. I’m tired of feeling like my legs are so restless that I need to run around the block eight times. I’m tired of the nightmares and I’m tired of the frightening realizations concerning my self-worth and self-esteem, or lack there of.
Someone please create the perfect happy pill? Let us all get better and live like we are apparently supposed to.
Normal.
Happy.
Calm.
Make Believe.

Anxiety ruined my life. Have you tried to take any SSRIs or SNRIs? Effexor sort of worked for me (it at least helps me sleep) but there is no perfect happy pill I’m afraid. All they do is take the edge off.
