    It will get better but it will also take time. I still get morning "shakiness" (its not anxiety really) some mornings. Just give it some time and be patient, which I know is not easy.

    yes it will get better. my anxiety was so bad that I thought I wont make it. medication did nothing for 12 weeks then slowly started working at 16 weeks I was doing good. and then now 6 months in I'm better and better. medication take time. morning anxiety is usually the last thing to go. you will be fine just have to push trough these horrible times . so glad I stuck with it. i thought i was never going to get my life back.

      thank you, crazy you take the meds to help and they make you feel worse for so long that you believe its your life forever unless i go off. I will stick with it hoping to feel myself again. my anxiety wasnt that bad when I started so i know its the Meds.

      Thanks for the reassurance
