    Would you be better going up to 125? I go up 25 when I feel I need to. 50 is rather a lot. I started in 25 and am now on 100. But is I feel I need to up it I will go to 125.

      Went up in 50's yes.

      No. Brain chemistry imbalance so on Sertraline permanently. It just stopped working aka pooped out.
