Hi, I am really struggling with anxiety. I suffered roughly ten years ago, tried lots of different medications and venlafaxine and propranolol worked amazing for me, I didn’t have any trouble. Last week I tested positive for covid, I was really ill and it seems to have brought out my anxiety to the point it feels like my medication is not working. I have been back to the doctors and they’ve upped both of my medications - 300mg ven and 120mg of propranolol. My anxiety is still through the roof. Has anyone been on this medication? Does anyone have any advice? Or something that works for them? I feel like I’m losing my mind
