Hello everyone, as many people, I suffer from anxiety and depression problems and last time when I went to Germany, I wanted to have something against that but I couldn't go to all the pharmacies in Germany to search for it and when I tried searching about the pharmacies in Germany.

I got a Pharmacy Directory to locate all the pharmacies in Germany on this page http://www.drugdelivery.ca/xx-GM-03-A-xx/Bremen-Pharmacy.aspx I found that very practical.

You imagine, I sat and phone different pharmacies to ask about a medication against anxiety and depression. What's nicer with it is that there is also for other countries like UK,India and other more. Wink

Well, just wanted to share this with you because you may need one one day!!!

However, every medicaton they suggested me needed a prescription written by a Doctor. Do you know any medicatuion which I can take against depression and anxiety??

Thanks for your the link. I imagine that meds for anxiety need a prescription. You should probably ask your doctor. Here's a brief summary of some of the meds available:

There are some non-prescription supplements that may help anxiety. 5-htp is one that I know of.

I've tried so many supplements and nothings has worked: 5htp, SJW, valerian, l-tyrosine, niacinamide, picamilon, aniracetam. Alcohol is the only thing that relieves my anxiety and depression temorprarly (in fact the only reason I'm only able to type many response tonight is b/c I'm tipsy). Chlorpheniramine seemed to help with depression for a couple weeks but then stoped when I upped my dose (it doesn't help w/ anxiety) so it might have been a plecebo affect but I'm going to lower my dose again and see.
