just started - 2.5mg sensitivity - advice?

hello everyone.

i just started ami for IBS-D/anxiety. I know my dose is VERY low to tackle either of these yet but I am trying to build up.

However, even on 2.5mg (only three nights in) I’m feeling like a zombie, brain fog, dizzy. i can deal with all the other symptoms right now (dry mouth, inc. heart rate) and i’ve read a lot on these threads that the brain fog will fade.

However!!! my dose is REALLY LOW. and yesterday (third night) i had to lower the dose to 1.25mg because im just not in the position to not be able to think at work (i work really long hours and need my brain).

i’ve been struggling with all sorts of gut issues and brain fog/dizziness has been an on and off problem, but it’s a lot worse right now.

planning to stick out the 1.25mg for a bit more before giving up, but just wondering if anyone has any opinions/advice.

edit: i have started so low because im very sensitive to all meds.
