I have been on meds for a long time for anxiety and depression and I don't understand why for awhile now the anxiety is so bad in the morning for the first few hours, it is affecting me at work, I get overwhelmed and I have an eating disorder that it is playing havoc with. any advice or anyone go through this?

Sometimes feelings of depression have also followed some sort of diurnal cycle. I guess its something to do with hormonal systems - there are so many different substances whose production varies throughout the day and night.
It sucks I know. I hope youll be able to find ways to reduce your stress and I hope you can relax a bit at the weekend! ((( )))
