I was prescribed Escitalopram for anxiety, I had only been really nervous before taking it. After taking 4 10mg pills and 24/7 anxiety on the pills I now have morning anxiety daily. Will it stop?

I understand you being nervous regarding taking a new medication. I also understand anxiety and how paralyzing it can be. Have you considered reaching out to your prescribing doctor with information regarding excessive anxiety in the morning? You are not alone in this journey of finding medications and other resources to help with your anxiety, Can you tell me how you feel when you wake up? Are you able to share with me when it started and what was happening in your life at this time? I am here to listen to anything you feel comfortable sharing so we can try and figure out when this started
