CBT is the best way to go about for anxiety. Period. Benzo-medication should only be used for small amounts of time. For your sake, Alpha, my recommendation is that you stop taking drugs which mess with your neuro-chemicals. Psychiatry is basically the medical part which deals with imbalance of the above said, so even if a treatment would work - by default - your usage only tumbles down its effects.
My professional suggestion. |

| Thanks, Chimney. I've only taken Iboga once, and hopefully not planning to do it again. I now have to decide whether to pursue work and my Master's degree here in New York, or go back to Israel and be part of a community there, as I once was. The latter may be a healthier option for my mental and emotional stability. |

It was the cult-like place I was in, not the place I originally went to. |

depends what sort of anxiety and wether it has a trigger. It won't do a thing if you can't actually determine triggers. So if you wake up and anxious, cbt has nothing to offer.
My feeling is that this is something you've had for a while. Some people have a over active amygdala. CBT works great for specific things that cause anxiety like talking to gypsies or having sex with black people.
I would just exercise and meditate and avoid drugs and just accept you are an anxious. person. |

That's the point. Finding out the trigger and solving the problem. Regardless if it's reactive or endogenous anxiety. |

| some anxiety does 't have a trigger. You are just anxious. Thats your default setting. GAD is usually the term given for that type. At least not a trigger you have access to. |

Your point being? What does this have to do with what I've said? |
