Increased anxiety on my meds

Coping Strategies

I’ve switched meds form quetiapine to cariprazine recently, and have noticed a big spike in my anxiety that was practically gone on my old meds… - it’s making it hard to function in everyday life and my psychiatrist won’t be able to see me for another month… I would like to show up semi-prepared so I can actually get the help I need, this is the whole reason I’m making this post. - does anyone have good recommendations as to some coping strategies or meds that have worked for anxiety? Maybe sertraline? Even better if someone has experienced the same with increased anxiety as a side effect!!

Thank you!!
