Eleanor -- Based on my recent trial with Parnate, I'd say it has more to do with your decrease in Parnate than it does with your change in dose with lithium.
3-4 days after I stopped taking parnate, my anxiety shot through the roof and has yet to return to the level it was prior to taking parnate and I've been off of it a month. It feels like some sort of rebound anxiety. As far as I know (and I've only been on lithium for a 1 week trial), the lithium should be decreasing your anxiety, not adding to it.
