Question: Someone with knowledge..help?
Answers:
Melanie I am guessing your early in your treatment. The first thing to remember is no matter what the thoughts are telling you, you are ok. You cannot die from being anxious. I have GAD and OCD. How long have you been on the prozac? It can take up to four weeks to work well. Also you may need a higher dose or a different ssri. How old are you? If you are not too young or prone to substance abuse ask your doc for a limited prescrition of a benzo like klonopin or xanax to take until the ssri kicks in. If benzos are not an option buspar is a great non addictive drug for gad. Also if you are not in therapy i would recommend it since sometimes meds alone are not enough. You will be ok you just need some help to stop feeling like this.
