Looking for non-sedative anxiety medication

does anyone take an anxiety medication that does not cause drowsiness/tiredness? i would like to try something that isn’t a sedative because they freak me out

I take effexor it has helped me tremendously. I also have narcolepsy so any thing that might make you tired is 10x worse for me

I take prozac and wellbutrin. The wellbutrin helps to minimize a lot of the drowsiness from the prozac. It helps with my energy and my mood. I really like it

I take hydroxyzine and I don't have any problems with drowsiness

hydroxyzine is actually an antihistamine and drowsiness is super common with it! Might not be a good option for someone who’s already feeling drowsy haha

I take Wellbutrin and buspirone. I take both twice a day, morning and lunch, and don’t have any issues. They actually seem to perk me up a bit.
