I took dosulepin for 15 years but came off it a year ago. I am experiencing high anxiety at the moment but I know this was triggered by physical health problems. I need to go in hospital for an operation. I haven't got a date yet and in quite a lot of pain.
When I think back, my anxiety even on the meds was quite high at times.
My GP put me back on dosulepin a week ago. I know they can take 4 weeks to get into my system but the side effects, dry mouth, tinnitus and drowsiness are making me even more anxious.
I am even wondering if it is worth me sticking with it as I am not convinced they will help any way.
Do you think you have improved on medication or not?
