Suggest Treatment For Symptoms Of Madness After PTSD And TBI

I have been treated for PTSD and TBI but I think my Dr confuses these two issues. I got an anti anx medication and face to face cognitive restructuring program, and even vet center counseling, yet its seems as if it took so long to get the right assistance I solved some of my problems myself empirically. I got sleep via medication, understanding of my situation by counseling, and lately restructuring. Yet, even thought I have come a long way from near madness to continue to have anx events that during the day can vary from manageable, to mild, or the extremes events. From which the extreme events are the ones that continue to give me a hard time. How do you recommend dealing with extreme events, since the other ones are under control by the mentioned treatment.

Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

I would like to know that type of drugs that you are taking for anxiety. There are many types of antidepressants, which can help improve your situation.
Increasing the dose may be helpful!
I would also recommend trying Yoga and meditation. Meditation can help improve your situation during those episodes. Xanax can help occasionally during the episodes. But it should not be used regularly for a long time, as it can cause addiction.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
