Hi all- My doc raised my Prozac up 10mg from 30-40. Before when I went up to 40mg I got terrible anxiety. I also just started 300mg Lithium and day. I guess it is supposed to make the Prozac work better? Anyways I did in the past take 0.25mg Xanex as needed for anxiety. I haven't needed it thank good for about two months. I have some leftover. Should I take one? I can't reach my pdoc. I have never had a problem with benzos, but mt doc wants me to not take them. I don't know why? This anxiety is horrible. I was at the grocery store when my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my body. So I don't know if the anxiety is from the Prozac or the Lithium. Don't you hate how you start a new med and have to take another for the side effects. This sucks. I am having dinner tonight at a friends house and I don't want to be so anxious. I know self medicating is no no, but in this case is it OK? Thanks.
Jill
