Potent medicine: Not sure what you mean strong stuff. A variety of different medications and doses can be needed at least in the short run, but a large number of people can reduce or stop such medication for anxiety with the strong stuff of cognitive behavioral therapy. Not everyone, but most. Dose levels can be misleading; and there are different classes of meds used, each with different risks and benefits.
