Hello Doctor,
I was taking Escitalopram 5 mg daily for about 2 months after stopping fluoxetine 40 Mg due to itching. During that time, I took the medicine regularly Flunil 40 Mg for about 8 months and symptom was controlled then,
Now I have increased to Escitalopram 10 mg. I wanted to ask:
- Does taking 5 mg for 2 months count as proper continuation of treatment, or is it considered inadequate/like a gap?
- Will this affect the long-term control of my OCD symptoms?
- Is 10 mg sufficient, or should the dose be adjusted further?
Please advise.
Thank you.

I'm suffering from anxiety for the last one year and have also suffered pain attacks thrice since then. It gets normal for sometime but again occurs whenever I take a little bit of stress. Some childhood trauma also triggers that and I get constant nightmares about that and wake up anxious and exhausted. I cry and meditate which gives temporary care. I really need immediate help.
I really need help with my anxiety and panic attacks , i get scared, fast heart beat, chest pain, i cant breathe, and sucidial or self harm thoughts.
Can anyone suggest something stronger or alternatives to petril md
I cant find it anymore
And i need some med to sleep and feel normal
I am a mbbs doc having low mood, lost all interest in activities and life itself after getting diagnosed with cervical and lumbar disc bulge. I am feeling worthless and have anhedonia too. I can't eat anything as I have no appetite and only eat two times a day. I hate my job because i can't indulge myself in it. Everyday feels so exhausting and I feel like I have lost my purpose. Is there any hope left and is it possible to regain my interest as I have only a few months left for the next neet pg?
