Which is the best antidepressant for anxiety?
This is a very good question, but the answer is not so simple. Most SSRI and SNRI anti-depressants can help anxiety but every individual patient will have a different response. SSRI medications such as Zoloft, Prozac, and Paxil have received FDA approval to treat various anxiety disorders including Panic DIsorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder. Any of those three is probably a good place to start. I like Zoloft and Prozac more than Paxil because they are easier to come off of if you need to stop or change medications. READ MORE
