Is it preferable to take natural cures and relaxation methods compared to taking antidepressants for my anxiety?

Name: Vikram Date of Birth: 2 November 1990 Place of Birth: Chennai Time: 06:20 AM. I've been prescribed Alprazolam for over a year to manage my anxiety, but long-term dependency is problematic. I'd like to explore more natural methods like breathing exercises, herbal supplements, or mindfulness exercises to relax without medication. I'm not sure if these are strong enough to be used as an alternative to a prescription medication, but I'm willing to give it a try. Can natural therapies and relaxation exercises be effective alternatives to Alprazolam?
