It took me the full 5-6 weeks to feel the benefit of this med, last two weeks I've felt "normal" again and been back at work, but our of no where I can feel the anxiety starting to creep through and really don't want to go back to square one!
Anyone else experienced episodes of feeling anxious ?
is the anxiety at work , you have to ask.
Hi, I'm on the same boat as u. 5-6 weeks in I started to feel more normal now on week 7/8 I feel very anxious again (but not as bad as before I started the meds) went to the doc today but she has told me give it another 2 weeks to level out and hopefully I won't need to up the dosage 😄
Yeah me too it's not as bad as it was before but I can feel it trying to creep through ! Lol
I guess its just time sigh lol lets hope a few more weeks helps !
I think it's because I have a full on week at work and getting anxious as I've only just gone back after time off for the anxiety so yeah I suppose it could be a factor
Hi Gem,
My thoughts are that our psychiatric medications are not bullet proof. It cannot fill up all the holes and cracks we were dealt with in life. I want to encourage you to fear not the ups and downs of life and to work on your coping skills. Consider the possibility that you may not have gone back to square one, but instead are just sailing on the waves of life where you learn something new about yourself with each swell.
Am with you in spirit!

Aw thank you I really appreciate that ! X
lot of people suggest a moutain of self help. but the problem is when ill you just cannot get your mind into it., these self help only work in remission when your brain lets you think
