Do Anxiety Meds Help or Make Things Worse?

I was sure something was physically wrong with me.

I went to doctors for years to run tests. I tried probiotics, antibiotics… I even went on a fasting retreat, even though I was already skin and bones. During that time, I would have tried anything that might fix the mystery illness that made me feel out of control.

When a doctor finally handed me a prescription for Xanax, I took it reluctantly… What would it do to me? But for the first time in months, I felt normal again.

However, normal didn’t last. When the effects wore off, the symptoms came back. Stronger. I was still searching for an answer, but now, there was an added layer of doubt. What if I had been wrong? What if it wasn’t my body failing me – what if it was my mind?

That realization was terrifying. Accepting that possibility was even harder. But it actually changed everything.

This episode breaks down what I learned about anxiety, medication, and why some treatments only seem to work – until they don’t.
