How many others are similar to me I wonder? I have tried various medications and therapies and supplements and yet I still have terrible anticipatory anxiety. Nobody knows how much I suffer, not even my family. It seems like it is out of my control as it comes and goes. Usually by night time (unless there is a very anxiety provoking situation coming up) I am relaxed and no thoughts make me anxious. I rarely get fast heartbeat etc., usually nausea I my main symptom and I feel like I will throw up but I never do, even after all these years of anxiety.. Yet I fear the fear. Anyone else like this? I also want to know what has worked. I haven't tried Clonidine but have tried proponalol with no success.

One user mentioned that they had a similar experience with anxiety and found relief through gabapentin, which was prescribed by their psychiatrist. They take 300MG 3x a day and use klonopin as needed. Another user suggested trying acceptance therapy to focus on one symptom and try to amplify it as much as possible. This helped them a lot when it came to feeling physical sensations. They also mentioned that propranolol has been helpful for them. Other users have found success with meditation and breathing techniques, using apps to guide them during practice. Some users have also found relief through medications like Xanax or Clonazepam for immediate relaxation, but these are not usually prescribed long term.
