Hi guys just a check in to see if your all ok, i really hope so. Ive been on sert for 11 weeks now and 50mgs all the way throughout. Im back to work and living my life again the odd social anxiety creeps in sometimes but thats only when im tired or worn out from my job but doesnt everyone keep there distance when tired. All else is fine and havnt had a panic attack since being on these tablets. Im thinking of increasing dose but thats only for my confidence while tired as im lots better but i feel still something is missing nothing major but i can feel it at the back of my mind.

    I stll have the wired, churning tummy feeling from the increase I think and also, weirdly, tingly bottom teeth, probably not even from the tablets! I have also been jaw clenching a lot on this increase, dont know if thats normal?

      Hi there rooney, anxiety has just crept back in but that'd because I've had a fair few drinks over Christmas and eating the wrong foods ect but in my mind I feel a lot better but if I refrain from rubbish foods and alcohol which I can easily I will be near enough 100%. It's just to easy to drink or each rubbish foods over the festive periods. I was supposed to be at a review today but I forgot so will book an app for next week to see how things are going.

      i've been the same scott, you are not alone, i've had a really rubbish week as well, last night felt really depressed and tearful, felt like that all week but last night was the worst day out of the lot, i've been back on my healthy diet and no alcohol too, feeling okay this morning but then again yesterday morning i felt ok but by the end of the day i'd lost it and was feeling horrible :-( hope the same thing doesn't happen again tonight and it ruins my weekend, i've been there far too many times over the past year, hope your feeling better today :-)
