Hello lybrate-user, if I was your psychiatrist and diagnosed you with anxiety I wouldn't have prescribed you amitriptyline. And when any medications for anxiety starts if all stays well and you feel alright soon then atleast for 2-3 months medicines will go on. I would suggest that you rely on medicines and on psychotherapy with initial episode of anxiety for quicker and long relief. Take care.

Don't self medicate. Try to relax yourself -- exercise. Exercise is one of the most important things you can do to combat stress. Take a few minutes to breathe in and out in slow, deep breaths. Reduce your caffeine intake. Write it down. Even if 2 lines. Write every single day. Chew gum. Spend time with friends and family. Laugh. Massage. Eat a healthy diet. Pursue one hobby walk in nature meditation. Yoga. For more details you can consult me.

Amitriptyline is not medicine of choice for anxiety. And anxiety can be due to multiple psychological, neurological, endocrinological or other physical conditions. So don't self diagnose or treat yourself and take proper consultation.
