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.

Medication
So I have been diagnosed with GAD and OCD and my psychiatrist prescribed me with zoloft 🤔 but I dont know im really hesitant to start medication because im scared of the side effects and ik afraid of relying on a medication for a long time. Does anyone else take zoloft? What is it like? Any side effects?

Who is on Prozac and likes it?
So I’ve been off sertraline 50 mg for a couple months now after being on it for 3 years. I got off cuz I was getting bad side effects from it like gaining hella weight and low libido. My anxiety has been so bad so I’m considering trying Prozac since apparently the side effects are less. What’s your experience with it/does it help your anxiety from your intrusive thoughts? I mainly have just somatic ocd
