Question: Is it true that i might need my medication dosage to be increased?

im on 20 mg of celexa and so far im as anxious and depressed as ever, not to mention the urge to cut is almost unbearable - my therapist says i my need the dosage to be increased and i hope that nothing bad happens if the dosage does need to be increased

Answers:

Follow your therapist instruction! Don't evaluate anything yourself! no self medication and no change of dosage unless you have been advised to do so! Honestly, it can have consequences, talking out of experience here!

how long have you been on it? meds usually can take a while to kick in and things can initially feel worse.
If you trust your therapist, then go with their advice.
I would do some googling to find out about side-effects if you're concerned. Citalopram might not be the drug for you (because the side effects don't outweigh the mental health benefits or it's simply not giving you any benefits etc etc)

life experience

Possibly, yes.
