Hi, I feel like I suffer from anxiety and may need some help. I have always thought I was never good enough and wasn t like other people. I overthink things constantly and can t seem to break patterns of negative thinking. I am thinking perhaps medications can help me?

Hi welcome to the health care magic

Yes medication will help in your condition

You are having anxiety issue and negative thinking

Your detail history needs to be taken to make diagnosis... Rather then simple anxiety it could be depression like problem...

If at one point of time you feel hyperexicted and at another point if you feel depression then bipolar mood disorder can be possibility

According to your diagnosis you will be prescribed drug

Fluoxetine like SSRI group of drug will be beneficial for you if depression diagnosed as I am suspecting

Consult psychiatrist for this and discuss all these suggestions
