I went from .125 to.100 3 days ago and my anxiety is starting to get unbearable.  I was thinking my daily dose was causing it but I am not so sure.  I leave on vacation in two weeks and need to level off.  At .125 i felt great.  would up dosing and then dropping back down to .125 help?  Meaning up dosing once to .25

I would go back up to .125 until I levelled off, then start back down more slowly,

I was doing fine for 3 weeks at .125.  no symptoms at all.  I dropped a tinsy bit and all hell broke loose

Just remember that updosing does not guarantee you will be stable the way you were before.  Some people updose and get a bit of relief, other people updose and get worse.  Personally, if I were you, I would try to hold and stablize.  If that didn't work, I would go back up to .125, but definitely NOT go to .25.

I would try and hold at your current dose too. If you felt great on .125 then maybe it's just a few more days before things settle down for you again at .100. Hate to see you go back up and not have relief but more tapering time. Anything stressful or other triggers in your life that might be causing the spike in symptoms?

my life is pretty stress free.  I up dosed yesterday to .25 but will be taking.125 tonight.  I feel pretty good compared to yesterday.  took the .25 yesterday at 6pm.  Around 7 I didnt have any symptoms.  this morning i feel a very  mild vibration in my jest.  I need to level out.  I backpack.  I leave on a 14 day back packing trip in southern Utah on April 7th.  I need to be stable by then

Gotcha, very cool!  I'm heading on a surf trip here soon myself and just hope to be as stable as I am now. The daily tapering has helped my stability throughout this mess leaps and bounds. Maybe just hold until after the trip?

took my .125 dose an hour ago.  Hopefully will be stable in a few day.  Its amazing how just changing your dose slightly really has a huge impact.  Im not going ot change anything else until i get back from Utah

None of this makes sense man. Probably the best idea, just settle in till after the trip. No extra fatigue needed from the sounds of your exploration!
