Question 5

what is the best anti-depression and calmative drug ?

Accepted Answer

No drug is "best": There are several antidepressants and even more anti-anxiety drugs available.  The "best" for one person may not be the best for another.  Doctors select treatments based on a person's unique symptom profile, past experience with medications, other medical issues they may have, and so forth.  If one drug were always the best, then everyone would get that one.  It doesn't work that way.

Question 7

how can calm my nerves?

Accepted Answer

Yes: First, be sure you are minimally physically active every day.  Then, look up "mindfulness-based stress reduction".  Try to do at least five minutes twice a day.  Then, if you still have symptoms, find a "cognitive behavioral therapist" to help you learn coping skills.  Each of these actions have been proven to help anxiety.  At last resort, there are meds which work best with therapy and exercise.

Question 10

how to calm my nerves before a big exam?

Accepted Answer

Manage anxiety: By learning relaxation skills & learning to modify the thoughts, perceptions & beliefs that trigger your anxiety. Learning to calm your body & your mind is the key. You can learn these skills on your own, but having a mental health professional "coach" you is quicker & more effective. Biofeedback helps learn relaxation skills (www.Bcia.Org & www.Aapb.Org). Entrenched anxiety may require meds.
