2 months on Sertraline and nothing has changed. Will it ever work?

Hi. I'm currently 2 weeks in on 100mg. I take diazepam 5mg tablets when my anxiety gets bad so no there wouldbt be any harm in taking it x

I'd be a little bit weary of sticking with the Xanax just because it's addictive. But I'm kind of in the same boat as I'm nearing 2 months now and in that time I've increased to 100 and feel a little bit better but still a long way off from where I'm hoping to be.

I've been prescribed Buspirone for anxiety. It's taken 2-3 times a day depending on the dosage. It feels like it's really starting to ease my anxiety. This also takes about a month to get to therapeutic levels but once it does, you will feel better.

Not sure whether it’ll help but my psychiatrist tells me she almost always end on a dose of over 150 mg before positive signs are showing. Is there a reason why you haven’t upped your dose? Right now I’m on 50 mg but intend to go as high as 200 mg as this was what worked for me prior.

Just remember you can - but only for a few days - can feel the side effects again. Do use your Xanax!!!

Only take if you absolutely need it. This is a terrible illness. They will probably raise your medication. Good luck

If its any consolation I felt shocking on the 50mg for the most part. Improvement when I went to 75 and even better at 100. I am now on 150mg and although I'm not better my panic attacks have stopped. 50 mg is a very low dose I believe... keep on trucking ..eat and drink loads of water

Good luck

Hi I started on 100 mg sertraline which did nothing for me at all.  The doctor then put it up to 150 mg and it made a massive difference.  Your dose might need to be upped so speak to your doctor.  x
