Am I just masking the anxiety with my medication ?

Post Body

I have some anxiety medication that I can take if I'm having a panic attack, or if my anxiety is so severe I can't function properly. I do not take these meds daily.

Lately I've had a lot of anxiety about a specific topic in my personal life. Without meds, I have days with just little anxiety, like the right ammount of anxiety for the situation, and days with a lot of anxiety. On these days I will take my meds and the anxiety goes away. Thank god.

My question is : If my anxiety goes away when I take my meds, is this situation really making me anxious (like in a normal way) and I'm not properly adressing it because I'm masking it with the meds ? Or if my worries goes away with the meds I'm fine and I'm not masking anything, just overthinking it ?
