No that's not normal. Finding the right meds takes time. Try one, move on to the next. Try to be patient. Be well.

May I ask what kind of med you are on because I first started of with Prozac witch helps some people but it didn't help me I am now on Zoloft along with alot of other meds for a number of things but the Zoloft works best for me. I wish you Luck.

It depends on the medication. If it is a short half life then the onset of working starts sooner. That would be like a canal. However, some like buspar have to build up in your system for them to work. Some depression meds can help with anxiety as well. Benzos tend to be the fastest acting but are highly addictive. Talk to a professional and see what they have to say. Remember, not all medications work for everyone.
