Got predisone pak late in day. instructed to take all 6 pills/24mg. feel off, have anxiety, worked myself up before taking. is it the med, or anxiety?

Both: The medication can cause some anxiety and a feeling of impending doom. This will pass . The fear you felt before taking the medication simply primed the anxiety pump. The unpleasant feelings will not last long and can be alleviated a bit with deep breathing and meditation . A warm bath may help or if possible a gentle massage .
