Hi, I'm two months into anxiety and have an appointment with a psychiatrist to discuss medication. Like many, I didn't want to take it at first and started CBT therapy instead. But my anxiety mostly manifests itself physically, and to the point where my day to day is being impacted and I find it difficult to implement what I learned in therapy. So, I'm about to start the medication route.

I was wondering two things for those who have conquered their anxiety: how long did you take medication for, and what was it like getting on and off them?

Thank you!
