    Hi , please dont worry about it, ups and downs are very normal during recovery, medicine is trying to balance i your body and different chemicals in your brain need different time to stabilise.

    Those ups and downs, or as we calling them "blips" will come and go until disappear completely.

    You will be ok

      thank you so much for responding to my post. reassurance helps!!

      can you remember when you felt better?

      im now on day 28 and anxiety is reappearing. im focussing on getting to week 8 (which i read is when everything should have levelled out)

      its just so hard!! xx

      It will work 
