been on 100mg for around a year now and while mostly good I have developed an awful memory . I'm wondering if it's time for a dose increase as I'm starting to feel anxious on a morning and irritable throughout the day . any ideas please ?

hi john, it maybe that you need to increase or it maybe just a blip, this time of year can be quite stressful. the person you should be talking to is your dr, they will be in the best position to go through your options.

if you don't mind me asking when you get anxious in the morning and through the day do you get it when u have intrusive thoughts about anything or it comes from no where ?

Oh I see , did you start on 100mg as it's a big dose for starters as I started on 50mg for 12 weeks then moved up to a 100 ?

it took me 12 weeks on 50mg to feel a bit better then I moved up to 100 but thinking I may need an increase . It does take ages for this drug to work but it really does help but it's horrible until it kicks in
