I am now 9 weeks into 10mg escitalopram - the last week ive been on 15mg. only had one good week, week 6 - 7 - now feeling so bad, shaking from head to toe inside in the morning, so anxious, and not feeling much better all day. Have had to go and get more diazepam 2mg from doctor - is there anyone out there who has taken this long for tablets to work - i did start improving but feel as bad as i did in 1st place now - im so terrified - im wondering whether to up my dose to 20mg - but also terrified of doing this - cant take it much more - its been the worst 9 weeks on my life - i have had this before and have taken escitalopram before and it worked - but didnt take this long before - any help or advice anyone - thank you xx
