Anxiety levels may increase for a few weeks after dose increases.
I have already got a new psychiatrist and trying to get out of this muddle.
What has the psychiatrist said about the meds combo you're on? Is there a plan to reduce them?
Do you know when I'll feel the full therapeutic effects of the escitalopram?
It is typically around 4-6 weeks, but can be sooner, or later. The effects of the other meds you're on may also impact this.
I looked for the icon and can't seem to find it on her page.
I have a vague recollection that a certain number of posts are required before access to private messaging is allowed. Try this link: https://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/privat...do=newpm&u=992
