the same thing happened to me. i was taking 10 mg to start then slowly increased to 20 mg (the usual dose) and a few days later i had terrible anxiety/panic attacks. i kind of blame myself b/c ive read that prozac is or can be stimulating and is prob not the best med for someone with anxiety. i was stubborn and ignored that little important piece of information and paid the price. my pd advised i could stop taking it immed. (i was only on it for 2 wks) and was soon much better. now, if i could find something to treat my irritability, impatience, mood swings - i'd be in business. prozac does not induce anxiety for everyone but im guessing if you already have anxiety this might be a med to stay away from...
