hey everyone. im new here so heres a quick background.
i was diagnosed with anxiety dec 07'. was housebound untill feb 08' which is when i started taking klonopin. i began to take .25 am then again in the pm. im trying to go back to school in the fall (my anxiety has prevented me from going before) so i decided that i would try to up my dosage of klonopin because i knew that i would begin to feel anxious with school coming up and im also having oral surgery in a few weeks. i wasnt consistent when i tried to increase my dose though..
friday 13th- .5 am .25 pm
saturday 14th- .5 at noon .25 pm
sunday 15th- back down to .25 am and .25 pm
monday-wednesday- .5 am .25 pm
i began to feel even more anxious and kept having weird sensations that i dont even know how to explain. so thursay i decided to go back to my usual dose of .25 am and pm. im still feeling anxious and extremely dizzy.
i dont know whether i should try to increase my dosage again or not? its prescribed at .5 mg 2 x a day.
why do you think i was more anxious when i increased my dosage? ive been having panic attacks all day every day since i began messing with my dosage. i dont know if its becuase im thinking about school or if its my meds.
any advice would be greatly appreciated! thanks!
