In reply to -what is the best drug for anxiety, posted by cee on November 28, 2009, at 16:56:54
I had bad anxiety recently and took perphenazine (which I have left over from the summer when I was in the hospital for depression)> Not only did it stop the anxiety, it got me out of this funk of feeling stressed and tired, which I had assumed was due to working too hard. I'm now taking it regularly - just 16 mg/day. It's a great drug. The only side effect is some hypotension (orthostatic) at higher doses. Also at very high doses, it can cause akathesias and so on, but at just 16 mg/day, it works great for me.
