Well that's kinda hard to say and depending on the Dr who prescribes them, I have been on Xanax, and a new one they just came out with. Basically it really depends on the Dr. Sorry I can't be more helpful

Different meds work different on different people. I use Valium. It's in a class of drugs called Benzodiazepines. They are not for everyone. Some of the SSRI antidepressants have antianxiety properties in them. I take Trintellix and I know it does. BusPar is also another good one that was mentioned already. The best thing to do is to discuss it with your Dr. Which the best route for to go would be. What's good for one person may not be good for someone else.

Meds are different for everyone so nobody can exactly give you the med that will work for you unfortunately. If you go to a doctor and get a genetic test it may help determine what meds would be best for you however.
