how does the medication work?

Hi Rachel,

Is this what you meant?

Some times medication works by holding on to Serotonin (the chemical in your brain that keeps you feeling happy) longer, so that you feel happier. These are called Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor or SSRI.

Sometimes medication works by "fooling" your brain into relaxing because it works by making your body relax, (like valium for example).

Sometimes medication works by taking away the symptoms of anxiety, it stops you shaking or takes away palputations. (Propranolol for example).

Sometimes medication works by just being a tablet, it doesn't contain anything useful to make you better, but because you think it does, then it works. (Placebo effect.)

Vitamins for example work by giving you a boost of chemicals that you may be lacking in, and some of these chemicals can help to beat depression and anxiety.




Love, light and Best wishes
