    i'm on 7.5mg a day since july 19 and have been up & down but have a few stresses going on. i'm struggling again and about to go up 2.5mg as I get every side effect going and it terrifies me. my Dr said my dose is just a bit too low but I have introduced propranolol and it's easing the severe adrenaline xx

    hi cant remmber what dose you are on but 20 is the minimum therapeutic dose for nost people. I was on 20 last time but this time ive had to go up to 30 to get relief. Suggest you increase
