    Increased anxiety is totally normal when upping a dose. If the anxiety persists even after 6 weeks, then you need to talk to your doctor as the dose might be too high for you.
    Just wait it out and see how you feel.

    Can you take Klonopin for a few days until you start feeling better?
    It's quite possible you're also freaked out over the dose increase and you're making yourself worse.

    I've been taking diazepam to help but they are only 2mg so barely taking the edge off but I just keep telling myself that it's normal and will pass, try and stick it out if you can but I know how hard it is ××

    You've increased by a lot, 75mg so I'm not surprised your feeling it, my physc wanted me to go from 225mg straight to 300mg I told him no way! I only ever increase by 37.5mg at a time ××
