Varies: Medication is used to address symptoms that interfere with your life. You can learn non medication based measures to address your anxiety such as cognitive behavioral therapy, meditation, exercise, support groups etc. As you benefit from other avenues of therapy, you may find you can decrease or discontinue medication. Be sure to discuss this with your prescribing doctor before changing meds.
