    i'd say you've had a blip. often, if you're doing well, it's a sign the tablets are working but during recovery you will hit blips. the key is not to panic but to try and work through it and it should ease. having said that, I'm on 10mg and due to extra stress, i'm in an increased anxious mode atm
