So much better

After 4 months away from this site I am so happy to report like I like my life now. I went through 5ish months of therapy with a therapist I loved but with no change in my anxiety. None of the tools for battling anxiety were helping me. In December I went on 50mg of Zoloft and it has helped me so much. I can now use my tools from therapy to stop my physical and mental impairments. My anxiety was not completely gone so in February I upped my dosage to 75mg but after a week of that amount I was getting anxiety attacks for no reason and my doctor advised me to go back to 50 and they went away again. But looking back on my life from the fall I’m am such a different person, and I am so happy for it.
