Dear user you can take medicine only for sometime, with medicine you need counseling as well so that you would be able to taper your medicines after sometime and learn how to manage or control your thoughts on your own. All I need is a complete case history of yours and want to guide you about your thoughts and worries so that without medicines you can enjoy your life in a better way, but without knowing everything I won't be able to help you. If you want to get rid of over thinking and negative thoughts medicines are not enough counseling will help you in a better way. If you quit medicines with counseling there are bright chances to get rid of medicines permanently. Change your routine and life style, add some more activities and exercise to your routine, spend time in your favorite activities, meet your friends and one most imp thing strong your will power and enhance your insight. I will help and support you so please call me and discuss all the details. My clinic no is mobile, thnx.
