I used to be on an SSRI for depression/anxiety but I stopped taking it over the past few months just because I didn't want to be on it anymore. I was considering going back on them because my anxiety levels seem to always be high these days. I am very anxious about the future and am always worried that things won't turn out well. I read books and stuff to try to help myself. Anxiety and depression run in my family as well, maybe I just use this as an excuse...
Can SSRI's help lower my overall level of anxiety? I have read that they are more effective for people with serious depression, which I do not currently have.
