    hi, I'm sorry you're struggling with anxiety. Are you taking the tablets for anxiety symptoms or depression? I'm also having a tough time at the moment with medication increase and I feel like it will never be over. I can't give you a timeframe for improvement as we're all different and have individual experiences but I hope you get some relief very soon.
