Anxiety Med Help

[Motleychixx]

Okay so because of my severe allergies I now have depression and anxiety and panic attacks. About three months ago it hit so hard that I couldn't quit crying and felt like giving up. I couldn't eat, get ready or anything. And my panic attacks were the worst i have ever had. I got in and got on meds, wellburin and Buspar. The first month and a half was better, then the panic attacks and anxiety slowly started back. Now the last few weeks my anxiety is beyond crazy again, and now I'm crying all day again cause I feel like there is no hope and that I will never get better. All I want is to be better for my son. Anyone else on these meds? Or what has helped others med wise. It is killing me :( help please

First, the two drugs you were put on aren't effective usually for anxiety -- Buspar hasn't shown to work that well in clinical trials and wellbutrin is more for depression, as it's very stimulating and can cause anxiety.  Also, allergies don't cause anxiety -- the way you think about them does.  I'd look into therapy with a psychologist who specializes in anxiety treatment and see if you can't solve this.  As for the allergies, realize that tons of people have allergies without suffering depression and anxiety, but also that there are a lot of things you can try to make them less of a problem that doesn't involve medication.  Allergies are an immune system problem, and can be from the environment, your diet, and many other things, and your immune system has become overactive and is reacting the way it is.  Sometimes you can tamp it down by changing your habits and diet, using natural remedies that might not affect you the way medication might, and trying to make your immune system as unstressed as possible.  It's worth a try.
