[panic_down_under]

I increased my dose to 105mg in the morning and 70mg at night. Could this be why my anxiety has skyrocketed again?? It's been 7 days now since the increase and although I've had a good day Saturday, I feel all panicky now.

It is common for anxiety levels to spike after antidepressant dose increases. They usually drop back within a couple of weeks.

So I've now done 2 weeks at 70mg a days 3 at 70/70 a day and a week at 105/70. Any advice would be beneficial!!

At 6 weeks you're now in the zone when antidepressants often start kicking-in, though the dose increase may have set this back a little.

Hi Milliemoo.

I am on Fluoxetine and that took 12 weeks to kick in, be patient if you can. I went through the same as you, its not nice, but the meds will help.
