I hadn't been taking anything else until recently when lowering the dose down to 600 mg eliminated the anxiety altogether. In my searches, I have stumbled across two cases where an increase in dosage caused anxiety. In these , it was an increase from 900 to 1200 mg that caused it. In my case, it was 600 to 900 mg that did me in.
Apart from that, I do have GAD, but the anxiety experienced from 600 to 900 and beyond was an entirely different animal. I'm so glad that it's now damn over. Taking Buspar now (again this is recent, after dropping Li to 600 mg), and it's helping tremendously. I in turn hope clearning anxiety will clear my remaining depression.
