You Don't Need Medication, Meditation, Yoga, Music, Therapy, or Anything in Between

Anxiety medications can have serious side effects, and the decision to start taking medication is certainly not one to take lightly. You may have legitimate concerns about anti-anxiety meds, but judging or shaming someone for taking psychiatric medication is not okay. Not everyone shakes or hyperventilates when they have a panic attack. Many people with anxiety have learned to hide their anxiety very well; that doesn't mean they don't feel it. Listen to them when they tell you how they feel, and if they prefer not to talk about it, don't push them. Find what works for you.
