Shawn not only nocebo effect but docs that increase doses much too fast so anxiety kicks into full gear. I had this happen with cymbalta no problem at one time tolerating 60mg with low dose benzo. Moved up here and the doc wanted me to take 30mg week one, 60mg week two, 90mg week three, and 120mg week four. At the time was new drug and the manufacturer only advised up to 60mg. I said this to the doc who replied "I don't care I have better results with this dose". Immediately so terrified I only took it for a few days couldn't tolerate the anxiety. Caused by feeling I was taking something that could hurt me. Phillipa
