   Hi all,

   around 2 weeks ago I upped my dose from 50mg to 100mg in a attempt to combat my awful anxiety. Since then, I have had two of the worst panic attacks I have ever experienced and am feeling really strange

   I was just wondering whether anybody can give me any reassurance that this is normal?

   I did feel very similar when I first took the 50mg Sertraline but I didnt expect to feel the same (if not worse) after upping my dose. Was this just naive thinking or is something wrong?

   Thanks :D

   Hi Zoe,

   A while ago I upped mine from 50mg to 100mg for about 12 days, I found it to be too strong, I was doing fine on 50mg but then my anxiety came back with a vengence, so I increased it for a boost.

   After 12 days of 100mg I was waking up in a fog, really out of it, so decided to go back to 50mg and I have felt great ever since. Still on 50mg and still feeling fine.

   Thats my experience with an increase, let me know how you go.
