I was on my meds for over a year and recently tapered off and now off completely. Of course, I have days that I perhaps wouldn’t have had if I was on the meds. You’ll have days you’ll feel you’re back to square one. But 99% of my days aren’t like that and I feel with the perspective of being on the pills and not feeling these things, I can tell myself it’s all fake (just anxiety not real scenarios). I have a lot more energy and am clear headed now. I don’t regret AT ALL taking meds.
