Another thing I sometimes find is that when I'm anxious about a situation, I subconsciously tense a lot of muscles, and so sometimes consciously relaxing them again can help.
75mg XR in the morning sounds a good plan. Do you find the "on edge" feeling improves after you take your dose in the morning?
Hope you're feeling ok today.
