Im finishing up week 5 of 10mgs and have had bad anxiety this week which im hoping is just a side effect and will go away. I know 10mgs is a low dose and am thinking about going to 20 but am terrified it will increase my anxiety even more. I just am desperate for relief and dont want to make things worse. Am thinking if giving it another 2-3 weeks before upping to see if side effect goes away. Right now flu is doing nothing for me as im just trying to manage the side effects.
