PolarBear Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 You can get side effects increasing a dosage of an SSRI. Usually they subside in fairly short order. Link to comment
jimangie1973 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Please give it more time. SSRIs take a really long time to fully kick in. In my case, it was over 2 months but definitely worth it. Link to comment

I upped mine in December n I say it took a good few weeks to feel normal again but it will happen just give them a chance and trust me I know how awful the side effects are when starting and increasing! Take care hun Xx Thanks for your replys how long should I wait it's like day 15 of increase and omg u feel like **** my thoughts are so much worse and a bit irritated from it xx Link to comment
