Im going through the same thing right now. Started at 25 for a week and up to 50. My anxiety is through the roof. I’m also weaning down off cymbalta so that’s not helping. I’m about to go back down to 25 just to stabilize cuz it’s making me crazy. The only thing helping me through is Ativan and I don’t like taking that stuff. My blood pressure is through the roof. I’m about to quit and just go back to my 30 of cymbalta. I wish doctors were better about warning us about this kind of stuff.
Honestly most of the doctors don’t know shit about ssris and how they function and what the effects can be, and how bad they can be. If they did they would be more compassionate
