I'm feeling a bit down because I may get anxious about three times a week since I had an anxiety attack a few weeks ago due to stress from class. I talked to my therapist last week and she says the anxiety I got was situational. My psychiatrist increased my dose to Effexor XR 150 mg from 75 mg a week and a half ago. I started taking Effexor since March because Prozac was not working and my psych says it may take 3 to 4 weeks to be fully active with the increase. Also, I cannot take Klonopin when getting anxious because she doesn't want me to take it and I have been prescribed Vistaril, but it doesn't work that much. I guess i'm supposed to wait a few weeks...
