Honestly not sure why they want to increase you so soon, as 100mg isn't such a small dose. I would stick with the 100mg for at least 6 weeks to see if you feel any progress at that dose first.. When I started taking zoloft I started with 25mg for 5 days and bumped up to 50mg after that and did fine with it but that is a very low dose, the doctor just wanted me to introduce the meds to my system first. If you don't feel comfortable increasing that quickly, possibly talk to your doctor and tell him that you would like to stick with the 100mg for a bit.
