Heya Katie,

I think a lot of people feel unsettled and worried when the medication starts to work and we start to feel a bit better because we have become so used to thinking and feeling in a certain way. The change is something we haven't felt for a long time and it makes us anxious because it isn't 'normal' to us anymore. It's completely normal to feel this way. Just remember that it will get better and the more you get used to the changes and try not to focus on them the better you will feel :)
