Frequently asked questions about anxiety medication in Indiana
What about medication side effects?
If you have concerns about side effects, know that you are not alone. Many people with anxiety also become anxious about potential side effects when beginning medication for anxiety treatment. If you are worried, the best people to ask about side effects are your prescribing provider or a pharmacist. Be open about your worries and your provider or pharmacist can provide you with the information you need to better understand possible side effects.
How long will it take to feel better?
Only you can decide if you need treatment. Often, people will seek treatment when their anxiety is impairing their functioning in multiple areas of life. If anxiety is impacting you often, it is a good idea to seek professional advice and weigh your treatment options.
How do I know if my anxiety needs treatment?
Only you can decide if you need treatment. Often, people will seek treatment when their anxiety is impairing their functioning in multiple areas of life. If anxiety is impacting you often, it is a good idea to seek professional advice and weigh your treatment options.
What types of medications are used for anxiety?
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs): These work by increasing serotonin in the brain and this helps to regulate mood.
Serotonin-Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs): These work by increasing the serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain.
Benzodiazepines: These work by helping the brain calm down.
Buspirone: This medication works on the serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain.
Beta-Blockers: These were originally for heart conditions but have been found to address the physical symptoms associated with anxiety.
Others: Some older antidepressants may be used as well, and some providers also utilize antihistamines for short term anxiety relief.
Do I have to take medication for my anxiety?
This is a great question for your provider. It is important that you are on board with your treatment plan, so it is important to ask these questions. If you are uncomfortable starting with medications, express this to your provider. At that point you and your provider can discuss if other treatments, such as therapy, may be a better fit. Then, if you change your mind later or of things change and you do want medication, you will have all the information you need and the right provider to see.
What happens if I miss a day of my medication?
This question depends heavily on what medication you are prescribed. When speaking with your provider about what medication is best for you, ask this question to ensure you have all the information you need. If you forget to ask in the moment, that’s okay, just message your provider or contact your local pharmacist.
How do I calm anxiety in the moment?
If you are struggling with managing your anxiety before you can see a provider or even after, while you wait for treatment to help, one of the best ways to manage anxiety in the moment is with grounding techniques. A great technique that is both quick and easy is the 5-4-3-2-1 Senses technique:
Name 5 things you can see.
Name 4 things you can touch.
Name 3 things you can hear.
Name 2 things you can smell.
Name 1 thing you can taste.
Grounding techniques work well because most anxiety is rooted in the past or future. Grounding yourself to the here and now will help easy your thoughts and anxiety.
