Be me

When I said I'm in a hurry, I meant that I can't wait years until I get better. I understand that it'll take time for the psychiatrist to examine me and decide if they might be good or bad for me, but if I had talked to them about this weeks ago I might already be taking them today hahah

What do you suggest, natural oils? Fuck off
I actually don't know much about meds, I suppose they won't prescribe me with benzos from day one if they're so dangerous, they'll start with something lighter than that, no?

This user is correct, self committing will get you a doctor in a day, but you’ll likely be there for 3 or more as they monitor how the meds affect you.
My gf actually has her own mental issues and just did this because we’d been trying to get med management for like 4 months to no avail. She was in there for 5 days, got a bill for $9.8k

Luckily she has Medicaid and it just wasn’t on file, so she won’t have to pay anything, but be careful as if you don’t have good insurance then this will likely be very costly.

Yeah they will start with something like buspar, or hydroxizine most likely.

Or they may go the “try this ssri and it’ll probably help your anxiety” route, if they try that I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

I'm not bad enough to be interned in a mental health institution. If it were in 2016, I would have done it, but I'm not as bad now
Ssri is stronger than buxpar and hydroxizine?

They will give you SSRI's which won't fucking help because most likely, your anxiety issues are curable with exercise and CBT. But you probably won't listen to me or the fucking doctors anyway you smart ass prick. Hope you end up homeless you worthless asshole

I used prescribed medication for a year, it helped me but didnt solved my problems. These meds can help you think straight for a while but you will need more and more for the same effect. I recommend you to go for it but use your time to get back on track, dont use them if you intend to remain the same person as you are now because now there is something in your life that is not right.You need change, try to see whats happening with you. If you decided that is time to get help that means you are ready and you want a better life. Find a motivation to go forward (for me its my family), keep in mind that it wont get better overnight, hard times are coming but you are ready , you have allready been throu anxiety attacks before, its nothing new , so you will learn that when these moments occur, its nothing wrong with you and you didnt do anything wrong, embrace the moment, let it come, be brave and have courage.

You sound like a collected and wise user to whom I should totally listen to

Do you think it's easier to improve through therapy if you're taking meds at the same time?

>whom
That's not how that's used, you pretentious fucking asshole. God damn, you really deserve all the problems you have. I hope your mom gets cancer, faggot. Why listen to people with experience when you can just do whatever the doctors fucking say? Because they know everything, right? You dumb son of a bitch
