Hello thanks for asking from HCM

I can understand your concern. Anxiety, depression occurs simultaneously in a lot of individuals. The symptoms of disappointment, laziness, fear etc you are having are due to depression only. You are on Venlafaxine 75, Propranolol 40, Olanzapine 2.5 and Mirtazapine 7.5 for these symptoms and these are right and proper drugs for symptoms. In most of individuals symptoms improvement occurs in about 4-6 weeks and acute phase of treatment should be continued for at least 3-6 months followed by maintenance treatment for about 6-12 months depending upon clinical condition of individual. So please dont think to stop medicine by your own even if you are feeling better. Consult your doctor regularly and reduce the doses of drugs or stop the drugs only after consulting your doctor.

Thanks, I hope this helps. Take care
