Hydroxyzine for anxiety?
Does anyone have experience with Hydroxyzine for short term anxiety? My doctor just prescribed it but I’m curious to see if others have tried it.

It's helped me with the physical symptoms of anxiety. For a couple days it made me kinda sleepy until I got used to taking it as needed. It's also an antihistamine which I didn't realize until I noticed I was sneezing and felt more congested during pollen season on the days I wasn't taking it.

I was prescribed this to help me sleep. I have a difficult time falling asleep due to my anxiety, and it’s helped. My doctor prescribed me Gabapentin as needed for anxiety symptoms and it’s really helped.

Does ashwagandha help with ocd and anxiety?
I am honestly desperate to try anything, I tried prozac and it works but it makes me gain weight which makes my body image issues even worse, so I need help. Has anyone tried it?

Medication and SSRIs
hi, I just started taking a low dosage of zoloft(sertraline) for OCD and generalized anxiety and I am on my second day. For anyone who has taken an SSRI or my specific medicine, how long did it take for you to notice a difference?

Medication
Hey friends, I hope you all are well. I just wanted to check in and ask people's experiences about being on medication. I have had OCD pretty much my whole life, just got recently diagnosed 4 months ago and my therapist recommended that I get on meds for it so I have a psychiatrist appointment set up. I'm a little apprehensive about getting on them, but I've realized that I do have some sort of chemical imbalance in my brain that plays a part in my OCD and anxiety. I would love to hear anyones experiences or words of encouragement. Thank you, I hope you all are well.
