A member asked:
Can anxiety be cured without ssri's? i have health anxiety because of ulcers in my stomach and a fatty liver scared to take ssri due to serotonin syn
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it can: Anxiety can be treated w/ other drugs than SSRIs (you're already taking one) - usually, for health anxiety I urge targeted talk therapy sessions that your Behavior Therapist might do or refer for. Benzodiazepines (short-term) might be an option. I'm glad you are thinking about common after-effects of taking medications. Good for you! Link: http://www.adaa.org/finding-help/treatment
