Hi Don

Its Michael here I went up to 100mg the same week as yourself I had been on 50mg for 12 weeks and upped to 100 mg about 6 weeks ago, I was the same as yourself foggy head and spaced out but things have settled down a bit so not too bad at the moment, I am doing CBT and sand therapy also and eating better and getting plenty of fresh air, I am also reading a good book that my doctor told me to get called when panic attacks and it has helped understand  things a bit better. So if you get a chance you should read it. I think and I am no expert but you need to stick to a doseage for at least 6 to 8 weeks for it to level out and then if you need to up it or reduce it at least it has had time to work, My doctor told me that it takes at least 6 to 8 weeks for this to settle and she has been bang on so far.
