Michelle..glad to hear that you found a med that will work for you. Sounds like its doing great on the dose you're taking. If tht is the case, why do you have to increase it? Seems to be working fine for you the way it is and with your yoga and excercise, why mess with a good thing? I may be way out in left field and if I am, sorry. But I'm just at the point where the less meds I have to take, the better. But I won't go against your doc. Hope you talk to him about it. Wish you well. LUV, SUZY.***sounds like you're doing great so after thinking about it, I'll just butt out and let you and your doc work things out like it should be.***
Michelle, congratulations and I agree - being positive, keeping an open mind and being willing to try different types of treatment (until you find the right combo for you) are the key - it would appear your using every resource available to you to overcome your anxiety - good job!!!
Hope we keep hearing from you - keep us posted on your progress!
with luv,

I do feel less anxious since on the medication. I don't know if it is in my mind or not but what ever it is I am glad.
I found that doing Yoga and meditating also helps ground me back down. I did not do Yoga for two days and felt a difference. I found too, If I have more than one cup of coffee that this makes a difference as well.
I am learning to live in each day and not the next or the what if place.
Today will be my last day at 37.5 mg, I increase my dose to the 75mg and I think that I will feel even better. I am glad that I decided to work with the medication but also understand that the medication alone won't work forever.
I see a therapist for cognative therapy and with reduction of stress, which seems to be working.
Being positive I think is the key.
;p
Thats great news Michelle. I'm glad that you are not experiencing side effects! Are you feeling better with regards to your anxiety as well?
Keep us posted!

I am happy to report that the medication which I started six days ago has given me little side effects. I only seem to have a bit of problems with sleep which the Doctor said to give a week.
All seems promising. I increase the dose from 37.5 mg to 75 mg after tomarrow.
