Today is day 17 of being on 20 mg after being on 10 mg for one month. I don't feel as spaced out but I still feel horribly detached. My anxiety he is still really high and comes in waves. Please share your success with me and let me know that 17 days on 20 mg the store early in the still hope for me on this medication. Positivity only. Thank you all so much

    Also, it may really be a coincidence but I will have very very brief moments where I feel normal. But they quickly leave. That's only been the last couple of days

    Hi

    Me again.  Sounds like things are beginning to happen for you - those brief moments of normality, anxiety coming in waves and not so spaced out.  Those brief moments will grow and the other symptoms will ease as more time passes.

      So to be perfectly blunt, is it normal to still feel so strange after about three weeks on 20 mg? This whole process is been hell. Fingers crossed

      Absolutely.  It can be a couple of months before you start noticing anything.  

      So yes, 3 weeks is early days sad  

      It can be tough and you'll often feel like its never ending ...... but patience and perseverance really do pay.  Just tick off each day that passes.
