> I am new to Lex and switched from Zoloft to Lex, 10 mg a day. Felt fine for a while, but then noticed wasn't doing as well. started to get anxiety BAD so I uped it to 20 mg two weeks ago. Talked to my doc yesterday and he told me to give it one more week and to take the xanax and see if I improved. I usually never have to take xanax. I still have the script from October last year that I haven't finished, but am using it now. From what I am reading, it sounds like it will take a while to get over this feeling. Can someone help reassure me of this? If not, will have to switch to something else.
Hi there, try to hang in there the best you can and give it a fair chance. Some of the posters on this board have had terrible side effects and then got better. If anxiety is the only SE please try to wait it out. Go back and look at some of the old posts!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!
