Upping dosage is always difficult. I have just moved to 30mg and also experiencing higher anxiety and dizziness. I am not able to control this anxiety with using breathing techniques alone…it’s unrelenting. I have been prescribed clonazepam but, you and your doctor may not want to go there. My GP is prescribing my meds and hoping to reduce this anxiety and the need for clonazepam.
