Need help bad with anxiety and meds

[LLLANE]

I am on lexapro for depression, a mood stabilizer and just got off an anti-anxiety because it made me MORE anxious. My doc mentioned benzos, but I have low blood pressure and worry about them lowering it more...Please someone give me your feedback! This stinks!

Hi there
Im on lexamil(lexapro) for about 3 months and it helps me with anxiety
it makes my heartbeat(47b/min) beat slow so it makes my blood pressure low(114/67).i do use benzodiazepine(urbonol) 10mg when i have anxiety and
i feel fine.Have not test my blood pressure when i used benzo's(urbonol).
I would ask the doctor 1st but i had no problems.It could depend from person to person so be careful.
Hope this helps
