Hi there, severe anxiety person here looking for input.

I’ve been on 10mg of Cipralex for about 1.5 years. My doc recently wrote my prescription for 20mg and said I could begin that dose if I felt I needed it.

I needed it. 

I’ve been seeing an unwelcome increase in my anxiety so I decided to take that double dose as of two days ago. I know it’s a relatively low dose, but I’m new to medications so I’m looking for input on what (if any) side effects I might have after going from 10 to 20 mg. 

Thanks in advance 🤞🏼
