The Shocking Truth About Anxiety Pills And The Proven Success Of Alternative Anxiety Treatment
The shocking truth is that anxiety pills will only temporarily alleviate symptoms of anxiety and the success rate of a complete cure is very low indeed. So, people who are prescribed these drugs (mainly SSRIs) are on them for years which leads to a sort of dependency and the real cause of their condition is never addressed at all, with expensive results for society in general.
Another shocking fact is that depression and anxiety are such widespread mental disorders in our society to-day that the cost in not only economic terms but also in social terms is enormous. Yet few people are able to come to terms with anxiety and resort (with the help of the family doctor) to taking anxiety pills such as Luvox or Zoloft which may produce rather nasty side effects. Pills to alleviate anxiety are just one small piece in the jigsaw puzzle.
We all experience anxiety in our daily lives to a greater or lesser degree. It may be caused by a fearful situation such as speaking in front of an audience or escaping from a violent mugger. We have an inbuilt resistance mechanism of 'fight or flight' which gets the adrenaline going and prepares our body to face the fearful situation. Short term stress can be beneficial but when it becomes long term and chronic, well, anxiety becomes a permanent fixture in our lives and worry, loss of sleep, stress all become unwelcome cohabitants within our bodies and minds. Hopelessness, despair and a feeling of worthlessness become standard daily reactions and that is the real malaise of our society to-day, I feel.
Making lifestyle changes can help greatly to enhance mood but many people suffering from depression or anxiety just do not have the will power to make those changes and will take the easy option of getting a prescription for anxiety pills. Yet the figures are astounding in that they show that self help for depression for anxiety is one of the best ways of coping with this debilitating condition. As the pills to alleviate anxiety create a whole new series of problems, people are turning more and more to naturopathy for anxiety which have been proven without any shadow of doubt to be just as effective as the classic anxiety pills which can have serious side effects and health risks. Natural anxiety treatment is low on side effects and high on efficacy and long term safety.
