It depends: The best medication is the one which is most effective and with a minimum of side effects. Some anti-anxiety medication can cause dependency, like xanax (alprazolam) and valium, for example. Also, it is possible, even likely that anxiety associated wirh schizophrenia could be caused by either needing more anti-psychotic medication or from side effects to that medication. Check with your psychiatrist. Good luck.

MEDICATION: It's important to find the correct combination of medications with your Psychiatrist. Medications aren't sufficient since they don't teach you coping mechanisms. A Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy can help you find ways to handle stress that will help medications work better.
