    I increased my dose from 20 mg to 40 mg and got the worst anxiety I've ever had,, just wondered if that means the drug is just working but not where it should be just yet any advise please as I cant cope with the increase in anxiety thinking off changing MEd or keep going..

    don’t change the dose on your own without talking to the doctor first. My advice for you would be to speak with your doctor as to what next steps to take. Everybody reacts to medication‘s differently. so it’s difficult to tell somebody what to do and that’s what the doctor is therefore. Hopefully either changing the med or dosage will help you feel better. Take care
