Work stress, anxiety, and a recent traumatic event are affecting your daily functioning and physical health despite medication.

Kindly connect with psychotherapist

Hi U certainly seem to experience a lot of stress and anxiety that is impacting your physical health. It appears that your meditation is not helping u.

When stress, anxiety, and a recent traumatic event start affecting both your day-to-day functioning and physical health — even while on medication — it usually means the emotional/psychological part of the problem needs to be addressed directly. Medication helps symptoms, but therapy helps the root cause, especially for trauma-related stress.

Hi, I'm sorry you're going through such a tough time. Managing stress and anxiety, especially after a traumatic event, can be very challenging, and it's good that you're already on anti-anxiety medication—sometimes, therapy or counseling can further help in addressing underlying feelings and developing coping strategies. Consider seeking support from a mental health professional who can provide personalized therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which is effective in managing anxiety and stress. Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, or mindfulness exercises daily to help calm your mind and body. Establishing a routine, prioritizing self-care, and setting small, manageable goals can reduce feelings of being overwhelmed. Avoid overworking yourself; ensure you get enough rest, a balanced diet, and some physical activity, even if it’s just a short walk. Reach out to trusted friends or family members to share your feelings—social support is vital. Remember, healing takes time, and seeking ongoing support and patience with yourself are key steps toward improving your mental and physical health.

Hi, getting out of the traumatic event is more important I think. If we don't address that, stress will affect each area of your life. That is the reason your medication is also not working properly.

Hi, If a series of events has pushed your system to a point where medication alone isn’t giving you enough support. In situations like this therapy becomes important because it helps you learn coping skills, process the recent trauma and reduce the overall load on your mind so daily situations feel manageable again. Alongside that, simple practices like setting small boundaries at work, short relaxation routines and regular sleep can give your body some stability while you work through this. Seeking a psychologist now would be a helpful next step

Hi, Combination of medication and psychotherapy can be more effective than medication alone.

It needs to be treated asap otherwise it may get complicated. It can be well treated with counseling sessions and homeopathic medicine effectively and without any side effects. It needs to be treated in a holistic approach for complete recovery. Allopathic medicines can cause a lot of side effects and addiction. You need an expert Psychologist who is a good homeopathic physician.

Thank you for reaching out. I’m really glad you’re seeking support — what you’re experiencing is understandable given the stress, anxiety, and recent trauma. Since the symptoms are affecting your daily functioning even with medication, combining therapy with your current treatment can be very effective. Approaches like CBT, stress-management training, and trauma-focused therapy can help you regain emotional balance and improve physical wellbeing.

It's completely understandable and okay to be struggling with stress, anxiety, and the impact of a recent traumatic event, especially when these challenges are making your daily life difficult and affecting your physical health. Many people find themselves in a similar situation, and feeling unable to handle everything is a very natural response to overwhelming circumstances. It takes courage to recognize that you need extra support, and continuing to seek help, even while on medication, shows great strength. Counseling offers a dedicated, safe space where you can gently explore these feelings and situations without judgment. A counselor or therapist can work with you to develop effective coping strategies, help you understand the root causes of your anxiety, and process the traumatic event in a healthy way. This professional guidance can complement your medication, offering you the practical tools and emotional support needed to regain control, improve your well-being, and move forward.

Hi Firstly you should check your physical check up and then take some relaxing technique. Like deep breath meditation and time spent with nature If you are not feeling well then go to appointment with psychologist Thanks

Before giving any advice first of all there are lot of things and facts which a therapist need to know and then only we can plan the stress relief sessions and removal of traumatic episode from memory. You have to undergo some therapies which will help you to revive. Hopefully you don't have to take medications also....

You can consider taking therapy along with medication.

You’ve described significant work stress, anxiety and a recent trauma, so it’s understandable that medicines alone are not enough right now. In such situations, a structured therapy like CBT/trauma-focused counselling is usually needed along with anti-anxiety medication to retrain the mind’s response to stress. Please meet your treating psychiatrist/psychologist for a review of your medicines and to start regular therapy sessions. Till then, prioritise sleep, fixed routine, 10–15 minutes of daily breathing/relaxation, light exercise and staying connected with supportive people. With systematic treatment, your ability to handle situations can improve markedly.

Hello ma'am, What you are describing sounds like chronic stress with anxiety, combined by recent trauma. Medication can reduce symptom intensity, but it does not process stress patterns, trauma memories, or coping styles. The fact that daily functioning and physical health are affected tells us the nervous system is staying in a prolonged survival mode. This is not weakness. It’s an overloaded system asking for structured support.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing what you’re going through. When work stress, anxiety, and a recent traumatic event start affecting your daily life and physical health, it’s a sign that your system is overwhelmed and needs a different kind of support, not just medication. While the medication can help reduce the intensity of symptoms, it’s equally important to build skills that calm the body and help you feel more in control. Therapy focused on anxiety and trauma (such as CBT, grounding techniques, or trauma-focused work) can make a significant difference by helping you understand your triggers and develop practical strategies to manage them. Along with therapy, small daily practices can help your nervous system settle: regular sleep, structured routines, deep breathing or grounding exercises, and limiting overstimulation. Most importantly, you don’t have to manage this alone. Please consider meeting with a mental health professional to explore what you’re experiencing in more depth, especially since the trauma is recent and still impacting you. With the right support, you can absolutely regain stability and strengthen both your emotional and physical wellbeing.

Hi, Thank you for sharing your concern. Based on what you have explained, you are currently experiencing work-related stress, ongoing anxiety, and the emotional impact of a recent traumatic event. Even though you are on anti-anxiety medication, emotional triggers and unresolved stress can still cause difficulty in handling certain situations. Trauma along with daily work pressure can weaken both mental and physical health, which is why you may feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and emotionally sensitive. This does not mean your treatment is failing — it simply means your mind also needs therapeutic support along with medication.

Dear Reader I completely understand your discomfort, and inability to handle stress at the moment. Maybe you are overwhelmed because of  pressures which needs better handling for which you can consult a clinical psychologist who would help you step by step in managing your anxiety and stress coming from various spheres of your life. Best Wishes

Connect with psychologist and discuss your inner conflicts

Hi...Typically, medications are not prescribed for general anxiety arising out of academic or work stress, interpersonal relationships issues, or other common life stressors. Only when a person's daily life functioning is severely impacted, medications are used to manage and regulate the brain chemistry for some time, so that therapy can be used to address the core issues that are actually responsible for their poor mental health and wellbeing. If your stressors are more psychosocial in nature, therapy will be more effective. You can continue your medications as prescribed by your psychiatrist but ultimately, therapy will be required to address the trauma and other psychological issues you are facing.
