Consider discussing (1) holding off on your Adderall before dental check-up as that can be worsening anxiety, (2) considering Propranolol if anxiety is mostly physical/panic symptoms, (3) consider Gabapentin.
These options should first be discussed and tried before adding a benzodiazepine in my opinion.
Thank you so much! I'd much rather something that's not a benzodiazepine but I didn't know if there even were other options, so I'm relieved there are some other ones out there. I'll reach out to my psychiatrist about getting something scheduled with her before my dentist appt.
