>My anxiety has been bad. Has anyone else felt wierd in the head on this stuff? I mean kind of out of it or is it just me?
Ali, you are not alone. I feel very spacey and kind of wired (and weird) most of the time. After about a month of 10mg, I kind of crashed and became very tearful and afraid. If it hadn't been for the people here assuring me that it would get better, I would have given up right then. But I talked with my doctor and he upped me to 15mg - I felt better almost immediately after increasing.
I am beginning my 6th week now, and I am starting to feel the anxiety coming back again. I am feeling a lot of pressure at work, so it might just be that, so I will wait awhile, but my doctor said I can go up to 20mg whenever I feel that I need to.
We are all sort of walking into the unknown here, but there is a trail of experience that helps keeps us going. Please, keep posting - we all want to be there for you. ...jlynne
