Hi guys,

I've had anxiety for quite a while but after not coping at work and it worsening I decided to discuss options with my doctor. I'm on my 5th day of taking medication and my anxiety has been worse and i feel sick. Does it get worse before it gets better. I also feel foggy. I want to go back to the doctor tomorrow as this is just terrible. Please help

Hi cassandra1988xx, it's great to hear you have taken steps toward your mental wellbeing. Everyone has different recovery times and experiences so it's best to discuss your symptoms with your doctor and to make an appointment as soon as possible. If you need to talk to someone tonight, please call our Support Service at 1300 22 4636 or connect online: https://online.beyondblue.org.au/Webmodules/chat/InitialInformation.aspx
