Dear Lybrate user, it must be hard going through anxiety. I'll suggest that you go for psychological counseling/therapy. Therapy will help you manage anxiety and it's related thoughts with certain skills, strategies and techniques. Especially cognitive behaviour therapy is proven and widely used to treat anxiety disorders. Therapy will also help you in the long term. Once you've learned to manage your anxiety and thoughts you can reduce your dependence on medications as well. Please consult a psychologist. If you need help you can contact me as well.

I do not think so that would be ideal. Kindly consult an astute psychiatrist in person for your obsessive thoughts and secondary anxiety. It is common for medications to not work. But you should have taken them for 2-4 weeks ideally initially and ssri, if it doesn't work there is a protocol on approach. Good luck.

Dear lybrate-user, have you consulted a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist? If not, it is better that you consult one, as early as possible. You can take clonafit beta till then. For anxiety, there are many types of treatments apart from clonafit beta. Anxiety may occur in many different disorders. Duration of treatment depends on the diagnosis and other psychosocial factors.
