Blip on citalopram 2 years in, advice needed?

So a few days ago my anxiety started again. I guess i did have some stressors lately with planning the wedding and everything. Just so discouraging when I had been on the medication for a while now and forgot how anxiety feels like and then boom this happens. Any advice, anyone had a similar situation. I just want this blip to go, this straight away makes me feel like the medication is not working makes me feel hopless.

Might be worth speaking to your GP to see if they will give you something extra for the short term (e.g. Diazepam) while you get over this blip.

I've just swapped to sertraline after being on citalopram for 3 years. I also had propranolol to take if my anxiety peaked which help to take away and physical effects of the anxiety. Might be worth speaking to your GP about them?

Thank you so much guys for the encouragement. Had an almost anxiety-free evening yesterday but the mornings are always bad and makes me feel like this will never stop.
