Generalized and social anxiety meds

To everyone telling me about how wonderful xanax is, don't waste your breath. I have a xanax prescription, and that stuff INDUCES panic attacks sometimes. SSRIs do too.

It may be that your body is clearing it too quickly. Have you tried a longer acting benzo such as Clonazepam (Klonopin)?

If you're not gonna bother with any benzos then I'd probably suggest (although they may not work at all):

1) Valerian
2) Clonidine (Surprisingly effective against anxiety)
3) Chamomile Tea
4) St. John's Wort (don't take this if you're taking any SSRIs, SNRIs or MAOIs)
5) 5-HTP
6) GABA
7) Vitamin B complex
