If you notice an improperly formatted reply, kindly message the poster and gently remind them it needs to comport with the Naltrexone example below. It is simple and keeps things traversable and useful, thanks 🙏
Naltrexone
I will start with naltrexone, which can help people who have difficulty regulating their drinking have a more natural and sustainable relationship with alcohol should they choose to not cut it out of their lives entirely.
Propranolol
It’s a blood pressure medication that acts pretty fast. They give it to people who experience anxiety. If you sometimes get overwhelmed or have anxiety, just pop one of these bad boys and in 30 minutes you’re calmed the fuck down and you can deal with it rationally. 
N.B. Some people have a paradoxical reaction of becoming very depressed temporarily.
Idk if it’s on the possible side effects yet but you can find discussions on forums etc going back decades. Very rare, and transient, but if trying for the first time something to be aware of as a risk.
To what extent does it address the mental aspect or does it do that indirectly on the meta level by making you less anxious because there is less physical anxiety to take notice of?
Edit: I know lots of musicians in orchestras and other professional performers use them to steady hands etc
Part of anxiety is the physical effect of it. The tight chest, the elevated heart beat, the panic mode. It reduces that physical aspect so your brain can focus without FEELING like you’re under attack.
I struggle with anxiety but I never have any of these physical symptoms. I’ve had propanolol and it doesn’t do anything for me.
Well, it’s for the physical symptoms only. It’s just a blood pressure med. have you tried venlafaxine? It’s… stronger.
I use nebivolol instead which is highly cardioselective, I recommend it. It has a longer half-life, too. My stress and panic response is a lot more reasonable now.
