How to get over anxiety of taking more of a medication for anxiety though.

I have been taking a medication for anxiety for awhile already. I am having anxiety of taking more of the medication though. I don't really want to have even less energy to do things ya. How do I get over this anxiety. Can someone give me some advice. Thanks.

Ya I still have anxiety of taking more of a medication for anxiety though. I have anxiety that it will just make me not want to do things ya. Can someone give me more advice on this. Thanks.

Hi AG,

So I am surmising that you are due to increase on your medication?

I understand your concern, and encourage you to talk to your doctor about this.

It could be that if you are managing well at the level you are currently taking...that the increase may not be necessary.

Of course, it could be that you have not reached your therapeutic level (the amount where the med is helping you) and that you are feeling fatigued because you are still being dragged down by the anxiety...

...so in that case, in increase will help and you'll find yourself feeling better.

Talk with your doctor...and yes, as HT mentioned...use your coping skills to get you through this challenging step.

Peace and progress!

I know...but sometimes you just have to pick the lesser of two evils so to speak...

If your anxiety is affecting your quality of life enough, then your choice will be clear. (((❤)))

Wishing you the best in your decision.
