Did anyone on meds find that after a while they seemed to stop working? I've been on mine (max dose escitalopram) for about 8 months now and it feels like the anxiety and depression is slowly creeping back in.

I've been on a fair number of meds over the years and it took a long time to find the right ones but once I did they seemed to work in the long term.

Could you ask your doctor about that if it is becoming an issue?

Yes, I should do really.

I've been on meds for years, and new doc finally found one that cuts out my coughing and being sick anxiety I get whenever I have to something outside my comfort zone.

It's been so beneficial in fact, I've taken to climbing Munros! Something I thought I'd only be able to dream about made possible thanks to my new meds.

The buzz you get when you get to the top is better than any real drug too!
