Hi Stevienova,
This is my first day on this site. I am 30 days sober and 30 years old. Never in my life have I had anxiety until I quit drinking. I think it has been the cause of my anxiety as well. I have never taken any type of prescribed pills (accept after surgeries) and that scares the hell out of me, like I will just become dependent on something else.
Please keep us posted on how things go with your anxiety, the medication, whether it decreases... I'd love to hear about it.
Thinking of you and best of luck.
