Nearly week 10

So I've been on this 9 and half weeks did 1 week at 50mg 5 weeks on 100mg and now midway through my 4th week on 150mg

So last few weeks have been brill felt back to myself and fab 3 night ago I had a particular bad dream and last 3 days anxiety has come back not as bad as before but it's there and slight shakes

Also I think it's because kids go back to school tomorrow and partners back at work and I don't like being on my own anyone else has this after being on the medication for this long? Will it go?

Hi Kayleigh,

You seem to have increased the dosage fairly quickly - so it may be that you are not getting the full effect of the dose you are currently on. I'm on week 7 of 50mg and wondering whether to increase yet or give it some more time.

 

The doctor increased it as I was still feeling on edge and had a really good few weeks until past couple days the anxiety had came back so she prescribed propranolol to take with it

Hi Kayleigh, yes, this happens to me, too. I am normally symptoms free when I am on this med, but sometimes when I am really stressed or tired or drained, my OCD thought comes back. So again, try not to have HALTS. Hungry, angry, lonely, tired or stressed/sleepless. Take care. Xx
