Hallo Mel, from another (almost) new person. I am sorry I can't give any advice or share experience of your problem, but the best thing to do if the medication has lost its effect is to call up the doctor. They may need to adjust the dose or change the drug. Has your doctor discussed any stress management/anxiety coping mechanisms with you in addition to supplying the drugs? There may be other things you can do that will help.
Good luck and I hope you start to feel better soon. Izzy

ahh thank you !! i think i need to see the dr again your right perhaps the dose needs tweaking,
you dont think tho if i need perhaps a stronger dose im getting worse or does the body just get ammune??
No other help has been offered,.
Thank you for your responce,:D

I don't know, different drugs affect people in different ways. What is good for one person might be less effective for another. I don't necessarily think the fact that the medication is less efficient means you're getting worse. With some people, the very routine of taking the drugs has a strong positive effect; once this becomes habit and you think less about it, the positive feelings about the treatment aren't quite as strong. There are lots of really good posts and articles about other therapies that may help too. Have a look around, and you will all kinds of information from natural remedies to CBT many of these therapies can be used safely alongside conventional medicine. If your dr isn't that forthcoming in offering support maybe see if there is another practitioner within your clinic who perhaps has more of an interest in pyschological health issues.
