Medication alone isn't an ideal treatment for anxiety. As a fellow anxiety sufferer, I have found that it is best used in conjunction with therapy.
The meds help with the physical response to anxiety. When your mind and heart are racing, they help bring that down so it doesn't contribute to your anxiety. This puts you at a level where you can start to address the thing that's making you anxious. It won't solve all your problems, contrary to what some doctors may imply.
I would not suggest going off medication completely without your doctor's approval. What I would do is supplement the chemical treatment with alternatives, rather than depending on the alternatives altogether.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy teaches mindfulness - the act of thinking before your actions or reactions. If guided therapy isn't an option, there are plenty of resources out there, from websites to apps, so you can guide yourself.
Otherwise, I suggest that you find an activity that calms you down. Meditation works for some, but I find that I need to actively meditate. Putting all of your mental energy into something like cleaning, colouring or exercising can help to lower your anxiety levels.

I am no doctor hun, but I used to have social anxeity only, but severely. At the time, I was given something to try that helped me. I have recently seen the same thing written in a book I recently borrowed from my library for the sake of knowing wether there may be something worth trying that may help others who write in here. Since relief with this method is pretty quick, and non medicine, its something you can attempt to do yourself. However, it often requires the insight and help of a Dr. trained in this healing method.
No it isn't best to give up and die. One must always keep trying for an answer, a cure, for relief, etc... Too often, those that have given up were just moments away from discovering something that helped.
I can't promise it will help but whats in this book, although I got it from a different source when I was 18, it worked and that's why I want to share the info on this book with you.
It is called "When Anxiety Attacks" written by Dr. David D. Burns and he has a website too. So if reading the book gives you hope but you find it too complicated to decipher exactly what caused your anxieties and what method is the best for you, then you will need to find a Dr. who is trained in CBT, cognitive behavioral therapy and perhaps at this website you might be able to ask for referrals to such Dr.s in your area.
Heres the website: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
I scrolled down far enough to read comments from those helped by these methods, some people who were now senior citizens and had been plagued with this issue for life and yet once using this technique, were cured. Please, even if you feel there is no hope left, at least read the book and see what you think of it. If your library doesnt have it, you can order it from a local bookstore and not have to pay the shipping, just pick it up when it arrives. If you get depressed enough to end your life before checking out this possible cure for you, call 911 and get immediate help to not do so.
I can say that this isn't something that is affectied by being good or bad or any other status, like age, race, etc... it just happens.
Pharmaceutical companies make money off people who require monthly medcines and in truth, some really do and its the only medicine that works for some, but all bodies are not made the same and so some foods are allergic to one and not to another, even naturopathic methods, some work well for one but others need different products. Since it all boils down to money, the help for anxiety or depression that is recommended first is the one that will bring in monthly profit. Seeing someone who has a non prescription way of curing someone is not widely advertised then, but it is still a viable and acceptable practice among the medical community. The only money spent is on the few sessions with a Dr. until CBT or other such methods cure a person at which point there will no longer be any repeat business.
Its the same in anything made, clothing, cars, lightbulbs....If a product was made well to last a lifetime or a long time, then there would be no money from repeat business, so quality has been forfeited for the consumer so others could continue to profit. I remember reading about a firestation for example in a rural town that has a light bulb in it that has never been changed and still works and is well over a hundred years old. Thats proof that things used to be made to last and work well. I still often turn to antique stores for finding my kitchen gadgets for that reason. I hope I have given you something to think about and hope as well.
