Hello, You may have to give them time to work, what reason did you doctors give you for changing your medication time and number of tablets you take maybe give them time and if no charge talk to your doctor again. Good luck.

It depends on you really. When my dr took me off ativan he replaced it with librium and two days later i ended up in the hospital. It can take a couple of weeks to feel the full effects of the med so, yes, you may feel worse at first before you feel better

I was taking it in the morning and it was making me sleepy so she suggested trying it in the evening. She upped it because I was still having anxiety. I am sensitive to meds so when she changes it it’s a little at a time. I’m hoping and praying this switch will help.

Getting worse before I get better is a standard part of psychic healing in my own long and tedious recovery from a trauma-filled childhood. I often debate with myself over whether I am actually getting worse or simply becoming more aware of the injury. Either way, it pays to be patient with the process. The gain is not always worth the gain, but often enough to be worth the gamble. The times the pain *is* worth the gain are nothing shy of miracles in action.

Unfortunately, yes, it gets worse before it gets better- at least, in my experience. The first week is awful for me I don't normally feel better until 2 weeks after a change. Sorry you're struggling and hope you feel better soon!

Keep a daily journal and list everything.

When you mention the symptoms, often the changes made are specifically to address those symptoms. What often occurs, is that other symptoms arise to the front.

I take a medicine that is usually taken in the morning at night because that works best for my schedule.

Best wishes as you find your better balance.

Thank you all for your help. I just worry that the getting worse will just keep getting worse. Your words of encouragement give me hope.

I am going through the same thing i hate it
