Are There Any Natural Remedies For The Treatment Of Anxiety?

I recently had a bout of Vertigo which was diagnosed as being due to an ear infection and lasted about a week. Throughout that episode and since feeling mostly healed, I have been extremely edgy and have many of the symptoms of anxiety attacks, especially whenever I begin to fall asleep. The doctor prescribed an anti-anxiety medication, and even though I filled the prescription, I have not taken any capsules. Are there any natural remedies I can try before resorting to prescription meds?

Hi,

You can try relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation for symptomatic relief. Avoid unwanted stress and spend more time with your family. If symptoms persist, better to consult a psychiatrist rather than going behind natural remedies.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
