Anyone else become dependent on anxiety medication? Missing one dose makes everything worse.

Hi everyone,

I've been taking sertraline, risperidone, and Solopose Beta for about 2 months for anxiety.

I've noticed that if I miss even one dose, my anxiety gets much worse, and I start having a lot of negative thoughts. It feels like my mind spirals very quickly, and it's really scary.

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar. Is it normal to feel this bad after missing a dose? How did you deal with it? Did things get better over time?

I'd really appreciate hearing from people who have gone through the same thing or have any advice. Thank you.

I’ve always been someone who keeps everything inside. Since childhood, I never really opened up to anyone, not even people close to me. Being alone always felt normal and comfortable.

But recently something changed. I feel overwhelmed by my own thoughts and emotions, and I don’t know how to handle it anymore. That one person I noticed is haunting me in my mind constantly, even though we’re not close and I don’t think I have feelings for them. I don’t understand why they’re stuck in my head so much or why it’s affecting me this deeply.

I’ve also slowly lost people who were close to me. I don’t even know exactly when or how it happened, but I can feel the distance now. Sometimes I have really negative thoughts and just want to go somewhere far away where there’s no one around. I don’t feel like talking to anyone and I can’t focus on anything properly.

I just feel stuck in my own head and like I’m losing myself. What’s happening to me?
