It took years. I have been struggling on and off for 22 years. Then about 5 years ago my worked was causing me so much stress I had to leave. I was going twice a week to therapy at that low point. I went to the hospital again and decided at that point I needed a new therapist because my ptsd was worse because I associated her with those problems. It took over a year to find another therapist. After being with her for 9 months I realized I didn’t have much to talk about. My anxiety around work was much less at my new job. Still had ptsd issues but I think telework has really helped with my anxiety. So right now things are good. A decade of hell is behind me. I try to get outside for breaks from work. Deep breathing really does work I never gave it a chance before. I am still on klonopin but just morning and night when my anxiety is worse. My pdoc and I have talked about lowering doses and meds but both agree not to rock the boat since this combo is working.
