feeling anxious

hello, i am new to this site and lately I've been feeling anxious for no reason. i have been taking zoloft for 10 months now and it has done wonders for me, i have traveled and done things that normally i wouldn't have done because of my anxiety. lately i haven't been feeling as on top of the world as i have the past few months, i fear that I'm going to go back to my old ways of thinking and i think thats my biggest fear. what are some things i can do/tell myself that will ease these thoughts? thank you.

Well, you have recognised the signs early which is good! You know before it gets too bad, make sure you stay positive, try to make yourself go out and do fun thing's.

Push through it, you know you are capable of doing amazing things now, it wasn't the tablets that did those things it was you!

If it really does get to hard go back to the doctors, help is there for you & I know its not always easy going and confessing all to a Dr but you now know help is there.

I hope you feel good again soon! x

maybe the doctor needs to increase the dose.

do you know if zoloft wares off over time?

I think if it stops working the doctor increases the dosage. If the dose is low. At least that's what my doctor was doing to me every time I would complain since I was on a low dose. I been taking it for 6 weeks and it's not working so she's giving me something else next week

Yeah I get you but I just don't want to keep increasing the dosage everytime my anxiety starts to act up
