I have been diagnosed to gad (generalized anxiety disorder), from the past 3 years, I was having nonstop or very frequent burps and it became the part of my daily routine which sometimes irritated me a lot. I feel uncomfortable because of frequent burps even my appetite lowers down and it cause acid reflux that further increased to burning sensations in food pipe. My Dr. advised me toh take etilaam pro 20 for 2 months. I don't know if I will be able to cure it. Whenever I sleep, I became unconscious and its become very difficult for me to get out of sleepiness. Also, I don't want to become addicted for this medicine. Please suggest.

Medicines have to be taken regularly and for longer time to get good results. You need to make lifestyle changes too like exercise, good diet and good sleep. There might be some other stressors in your life which might have elevated your symptoms which you need to deal with the help of a therapist. I suggest you begin taking cbt in case you are not able to deal with physical and emotional symptoms. Mental health is to be dealt holistically, medicines are not sufficient in most cases.

Dear Sameeksha, Etilaam may not be addicting or causing sleepiness. But that is not the only treatment for GAD. You can go for therapy, Jacobson's deep muscle relaxation, yoga pranayama, etc. to manage your anxiety.
