    I did the same increase a few months ago and my anxiety went through the roof. Stuck it for 11 days then went back to 150mg now on 75mg. When you say you feel terrible in what way do you mean. I feel for you. You may feel better after a few days because everyone is different but it made me feel worse. Good luck and hope you feel better soon
