Feeling alone, confused and frightened
Feeling alone, confused and frightened
I just read the wikis for these medicines. They are indicated for topical relief of anxiety and tension as arising in your case from your ASV and as anti-depressants. I see why they were perscribed given that you were having strong difficulties with anxiety but I personally think long term reliance to be inappropriate as it is only symptom relief and does nothing to adress the underlying cause (sensory and social perception issues).Better, surely, to work on coping strategies than to accept medication to this degree (or at all).
Also it concerns me that, by perscribing this battery of medicines, they reveal that they percieve your anxiety to be mental illness whereas in fact anxiety is an appropriate response to living in a hostile and confusing world where your social software is not fit for purpose.
