Consultation about GAD
Dear Sir, I have been suffering from GAD since 8 years, I was on prodep 60 but that barely helped me. I have stopped since last one year and I'm taking quitipine 50 mg as a sleeping aid. My doctor tried out MITRAZEPINE, NOVOFLAXICINE,FLUOXITINE, ZOSERT 50 .But, my anxiety shooted up when I start taking them . My sleep has been an issue from the start because of negative thoughts and bad dreams. I am feeling edgy . I need your suggestion on this . I stopped my tegritol for epilepsy recently and I was seizure free for ten years on that medicine. Please suggest any reliable and safe medicine for my case to treat GAD .
Regards
Dinesh
