Yes, I'm begining to consider that possibility (med won't work because I stopped it), but I'm shocked if this is the case, because I did't actually stop. I went from 50 mg to 37.5 mg, and then back up when I relapsed. So bloody unforgiving a process if that's the case!
I started 75 mg yesterday. I understand it's still low dose for Luvox, but I want to find that point where I still have some panic but it's manageable, so that the bulk of the therapy happens from exposure, CBT, and coping skills. I believe in this method, because I think that's why last time I was anxiety free for so many years at such a low dose.
If I don't get the effect I want by 100 mg/day I might try something new. Maybe Imipramine? etc.
