Hi
So I have always suffered with anxiety and low mood. This year I found out I am an Aspie. Not just a little bit but a lot.
Sometimes anxiety or sensory or both cause me to shake. At night, like last night I wake up and I am in the foetal position rocking with anxiety.
So I am considering anti-anxiety meds. But...
1) I am worried they will change my personality for the worse and
2) as a side effect suicide is possible.
Has anyone been on these and what effects have they had.
But what about meltdowns. I have 2 sensory and overload of emotions. With the emotions do they work?
They calm you down so that you can try and spot them coming on before they turn into a full blown meltdown. Again I’m not saying I never experience them (if only) but they aren’t as many as it used to be. Doctors have to tell you about the worst symptoms to cover there back to at least let you know just in case
