When you take medications for anxiety how do they make you feel? what are they supposed to do to you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less anxious: Depends on the medication. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssri's) can decrease serotonin levels and over time will help decrease stress. These medications are also often fda approved for depression too.
