Brain jumps back and forth?

Question for anxiety vets or counselors.

I have struggled with depression and anxiety the last 6 months. Mostly anxiety I think. I have been on 50 mg of zoloft daily for 14 weeks. I have been doing pretty well but will have a day now and then, or two when at times during the day my thoughts will jump to anxious but I accept and try to move on and feel better for a bit but they jump back to anxious. Those times I lack confidence but I go through stretches where I am confident and feel I am in the clear. Before Zoloft it was more feeling anxious part of the day then fine the rest of the day. Any one else experience this. FYI I would rather not go up on my zoloft. I actually felt so good I was going to go off a week ago but decided to wait. I am glad I didnt because I not expect to relapse yesterday. Felt a lot of old emotions I thought where long behind me.

Any resources / recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks

I do have anxiety I recently was put on Lexapro they say it takes weeks before you really get the full of fact I started with two days on the whole pill at 5 mg and then I started saying that my anxiety was worse and I’m very sensitive to meds so my doctor has me cutting the 5 1/2 for two weeks does anybody know anything about that and I still be getting some of the effects of the Lexapro will it still be working in my body even though I am only taking a half dose

You needed 10mg to start and some lorazepam to get you over the hump for six weeks.
