Hi my doctor prescribed me Celexa 20mg i was on it for 2 weeks and had constant anxiety attack and panic attacks and increased anxiety feeling shakiness and insomnia then i went back told him the symtoms now im on 30mg Cyrabalta and having same effect do you think i need to ask for a different class of medication or what would you guys request
 
How long have you been on Cyrabalta? Your doctor should have told you that antidepressants take about a month to start working. As hard as it is, and trust me I know, you have to be patient and give it time. But until the antidepressant starts kicking in, your doc could prescribe you a benzo, which is a fast acting anxiety med (Ativan, Xanax, etc...). Talk to your doc.
