Your problem can be solved by medication and counseling sessions
These are apparently the symptoms of Anxiety spectrum. You need to continue capsule rize 20mg and regular follow-up with a psychiatrist. Please do progressive muscle relaxation and deep breathing on regular basis.

You are right rize or other antidepressants of same class takes 2-4 weeks to achieve a level of effect in human system. If you dont have history of astham then take Tablet inderal 10mg when ever you feel experience palpitations or trembling sensations. Better to keep rize continue and tell us the progress after a month.
