It varies from one person to another. Some are able to overcome their symptoms with lifestyle measures like regular meditation and yoga, stress relief measures, alternative medicines, etc. They may reduce the dose or discontinue medicine as suggested by their doctor.
Others take these medicines for long time depending on the side effects tolerability of the person.
