Unfortunately I have read that our bodies adapt to the mediaction and ever increasing dosages / stronger medication is required. It becomes a catch 22 situation.

I was having bad anxiety, and was contemplating asking my quack for something to help. I did a little reading up on the internet first, and I was glad I did. You may want to do a little research before you ask for the dosage to be increased.

Just my tuppence.

Well I just want to feel better and am hoping to change to Effexor-xr as I have had success on this before.
