output: hello thanks for asking though more details are needed to make an exact diagnosis but the symptoms you mentioned suggest some underlying anxiety negative thoughts fear that what will happen lack of appetite etc could be occurring due to depression and anxiety mainly of obsessive thoughts type she is on the right drugs and if she responded with these medicines then the medicines should be continued for long once she becomes stable and is symptoms free for around six months then the drugs can be stopped by gradual dose reduction the medicines are not addictive and no need to get worried about that visit your doctor regularly and she will be better in the coming time thanks
