Morning.  U need to contact your health provider ......... it's Sat so if you can't get to a GP then ask at your local pharmacy.

How can any1 take pills by accident  .......... even more important to speak to a pharmacist.

Didn't you also start on sertraline too? How is that going? That can cause increased anxiety at the start which can take weeks to subside.
How come you increased up to 90? Were you having symptoms of low estrogen?

It's too much estrogen. You must stop changing the dose like this. I think you'll just have to wait it out now, but for sure, going too high on estrogen can make you feel anxious amd panicky. As CLKD says you need to tell a professional,  like a pharmacist, how much you've taken and get their view.

You need to speak to a professional and tell them exactly what you have taken today and ask for advice, nobody on here can answer that. It sounds like you've taken too much estrogen which, while not life threatening, may take a week or two to come down. Nobody can tell you what to do though, you need professional advice.

Vicky81 The ladies here have been down this road before with you, two years ago, and all I have seen them doing is knock their heads against a brick wall.
No matter what advice they give you, you take no notice of it but continue to start more threads and in doing so, other threads get knocked further down and forgotten about.

Get the professional help you badly require, the ladies here really can't or shouldn't advise you further, you need specialist help.

Agree with Ayesha.
You need professional help now. You don’t listen to a word anyone  suggests and continue to make sudden changes to an already chaotic regime.

Agree with Ayesha and Nas.  Get professional help, we can share experiences but aren't qualified - other than what we use to ease symptoms - if you need help in desperation then ring the Samaritans or go to a pharmacist.
