hey does any one have any suggestions on any possible over the counter meds to help with anxiety or to help me stay calm when i know i will start to get panicky? thanks

There isn't any. All the anti-anxiety meds are by prescription only....Ed

There are a couple that I use occasionally that work for me. I usually take them when I'm feeling a little stressed out or anxious and don't want to resort to taking a prescription benzo. One is a homeopathic remedy "Bach Rescue Remedy" for occasional stress or anxiety. Another is a sleep aid "Hyland's Calms Forte". It is 100% all natural and non-habit forming, non-drowsy formula. You can use it as a calming aid also at 1/2 dose. You can find both for cheap and read all the customer reviews and experiences with the products at www.swansonvitamins.com Hope one of these works for you.

I was using one that was for people with high stress jobs and students. It was basically for people with stressful lifestyles and after taking it for about a month I found it worked quite well for me and ended up taking it for over 2 years with no side effects. I haven't taken it now for about 12 months as I haven't needed the extra support, but I'll have a look for you anyway and get back to you re its name. I'm in Australia, but maybe you can find something with similar ingredients if I told you what it was...

Ok, that didn't take long. I was taking Brahmi + PS + Ginkgo - Triple Brain Formula by "Bioglan". I'll try and put the link to it on here. Hope it works
