Anxiety

Hi , started meds 9 days ago , anxiety all day ! How long before I start to feel better

Depends on the medication. Most take 4 to 6 weeks to really begin to work. During those early weeks is can be a bit tough. But things do get better. Easier as the medication gets fully into your system.

I second what Cuchculan said. I'd also like to add that medication isn't a magic cure. Just because you take medication doesn't mean you'll be "all better." There is still effort required on your part.

What meds do you take? I am on Escilaprom 10mg, and it took more than 2 weeks to start working, so give it a time.

Efexor xl , I was feeling really good on them , dr changed them about 4 years ago for cheaper ones and I have struggled since then . Went back 9 days ago and asked to go back on efexor . Said yes so hopefully I will start feeling better
