Not much progress

After two months of increasing paroxetine from 10 to 20mg, I still have so much anxiety most of every day, plus the side effects that come with the medication. I'm starting to feel that there is no hope that anything will get better. At the end of next week I do see a nurse practitioner for medication help, but who knows if that will even work? My coping strategies don't work as well as they used to because I've been doing them for so long. In another month I can see the therapist. It's been hard to get through this.

I have changed medication before and it took a couple of tries for me. I know you are changing doses but I imagine it’s the same process. It sucks going through it but hang in there. Just me, they will find something that works and even though you can’t see it now but when you do get through it obviously it’s the best feeling in the world. You will get through it.
