Do sports (at home, if you feel more confortable) but 3x 30min/week. Eat more greens, oilseeds, fresh fruits and food rich in magnesium such as: raw spinach, fish, beans, lentils, avocados, brown rice, bananas, figs and chocolate. If you have a pet, cuddle with it more often and take care of it. It will make you shift your focus from anxiety to something else. Try to catch the sun everyday for 10mins. Check your levels of vit D and B12 (adjust with supplements if needed). Yoga, you can find plenty of stuff online. Mindfulness meditation, it’s not hard, stick to it. When you feel anxiety, let it come, don’t fight against it. Take deep breath (inhale for 6 seconds, hold for 2, exhale for 6. Do it again). Just observe how tense and how bad you feel over nothing. Meditation can help to stand back. Sleep enough (7 to 9hours/night). Quit smoking and avoid drinking alcohol. Smile. Smiling, even for nothing, tricks the mind and releases happy hormones. Learn to manage your anxiety, it’s always going to be there because it’s a normal mechanism of protection but don’t let it rule you anymore

Hello there. Sorry to hear that you're not doing well. Prodep 10mg is a good medication for anxiety and depression. The dose is very small and depending on your response and ability to tolerate the medicine your doctor may need to increase it. However occasionally some patients may not tolerate it well. This can be easily managed by your psychiatrist. Kindly discuss this with your doctor. Also please note that such medications may take around 6-8 weeks at an adequate dosing for some patients to show a good response.
Next Steps
Please reach out to your psychiatrist and explain your difficulty in tolerating the medication. Your doctor will do the needful.

Hello, It takes almost 4 to 6 week's to show effect. However 10 mg seems very low dose.... U may need to increase it to 20 or 40 mg after sometime.
