was on 10mg to start, then 20mg for about 3 months was feeling great, noticed it starting to not have same effect then a trigger I got into low mood, doc recommended 30mg till the new year to see how I feel , have had some side effects lately not sleeping too well, and heightened anxiety has anyone had any similar experiences?

I also figured out on 10 mg, it stopped working after about a month. Now I'm up to 20 mg. A little over a month in and now I feel like it's just not working again.

I was on Celexa(citalopram) for several years before it stopped working. Had been on Prozac for 10 years( shortly after it came out in the late 80's)right before that when it stopped working. Since then was on off several meds until a few years ago when nothing I tried worked. Became treatment resistant to meds. My therapist recommended TMS(transcranial magnetic stimulation) and it has been my treatment of choice.
