First of all, it would be wrong for me to suggest that all of the commonly prescribed
anxiety medicine were totally useless, however, to be honest to you, most of them were developed as sedatives, anti-depressants and for other symptoms. As such, these medicines have very little curative effect on anxiety disorder conditions, if any at all.
So let me assure you that if you are taking any form of anxiety medication now, or have taken anxiety medication previously, don't worry it won't harm you or hinders your recovery.
Allow me to explain that in order to have an effective curative effect on your anxiety disorder symptoms, the part of the brain (amygdala) responsible for the development and formation of an anxiety condition must be reached by anxiety medications.
No anxiety medications can delete the anxious reaction and behavior which started these conditions. This is because there will be no anxiety medication ever be created that can exactly pinpoint the accurate neural pathways in the brain responsible for an anxiety disorder and selectively and accurately treat them. Anxiety medicine just could not do this effectively.
The section of the brain called the amygdala is responsible for anxiety disorders is absolutely affected by behaviors. While anxiety medications can be beneficial in true, clinical depressive disorders, anxiety medicine have only minimal and superficial effect on anxiety conditions.
Many a times, sufferers complaint that the 'soporific' affect of anti-depressants and other popular prescribed anxiety medicine can only 'minimized the edge' of their anxiety, Unfortunately they have no permanent curative effect.
As soon as the sufferer reduced or stopped their anxiety medicine, the anxiety vicious cycle starts spinning again.
