I'm very happy this is helpful for you! Did you know that low doses of SSRIs are regularly prescribed for general anxiety? 1/4th of a depression dose or so usually. Sounds like you're responding well to a pretty low dose! With the halflife being what it is, taking every couple days should be similar to taking even less, but daily I haven't read up on your suggested google terms, do you see this as different than the typical SSRI for generalized anxiety?

do you see this as different than the typical SSRI for generalized anxiety? I don't have a way to compare as I've never taken an SSRI or similar medication at a standard dose. However, I've had none of the common side effects associated with standard doses, so I'm inclined to believe the literature. I'm taking roughly 1/10th the typical dose (if you average it out over time) and while it wasn't quick or "obvious", I'm happy with the outcome even if it's placebo since there are no downsides so far.
