Inderal might be better.

I was on them for around 5 months before I gave them up. They didn't help at all, just made me super sleepy and was unable to concentrate half the time. Also after about a month of being on them you'll find it's 10x harder to cum when you're fapping as well. Enjoy.

I go back in a month.
if I say it isn't working will I increase my chances of getting a benzo?

I'm a college-aged male so I get the reluctance to prescribe me controlled meds

It's an SSRI antidepressant. You don't want to take that shit. They have a ton of shitty side effects, like constant weight gain, lethargy, no sex drive, or even feeling more depressed and suicidal than you normally would. Withdrawing from them is also a pain in the ass.

Doctors generally aren't going to prescribe benzos due to the risk for addiction, and taking them on a long-term basis just results in tolerance, and eventually withdrawal. Benzos are great for short-term treatment of anxiety, but that's it.

In my personal opinion, there isn't a suitable pharmaceutical approach to treating anxiety. Antidepressants are more likely going to make you feel worse than not, and anything else you can take is ridiculously addictive.

Yeah I had monthly appointments with my doctor as well, and I kept telling him that I didn't feel any different if not worse. He just kept upping the dosage every month, in the end I just stop going to my appointments and felt a lot better after I stopped taking them.

they placebo, eat them all nothing happens

Doctors don't like to prescribe controlled substances. It's not going to happen unless you're rushed to the ER in the middle of a nervous breakdown. They'll probably pump you full of Ativan at that point, but I doubt they'll get you started on any long-term regimen of benzos.

The closest thing you may be able to have prescribed is gabapentin, or a similar derivative. Gabapentin is non-addictive, and there's no risk of overdose due to the way it's metabolized. It works similarly to benzos, but the effects are more mild. You'll develop a tolerance to it very quickly, likely within just a few days. At that point, it's no longer useful to you.

There are also anxiolytics such as buspirone. Some people claim buspirone produces a mild calming effect, but the only thing it did was make me constantly dizzy.

I take escitalopram which is an improved version.

The best thing is the decrease in sex deive. Tbh i dont need it right now.

I masturbate once a week now
