Lovely. reply

We are all in this together 

Yes we are 😃

Oh you not feeling good Victoria?

horrid

i have been on them 6 months

Hi 😃 honestly I feel bad today. Yesterday was a good day 😃.. hopefully in time we all feel good 😃 and better than how we feel now 😉 we will get through this

anxiety or side effects ? jaw clenching is driving me mad

The jaw clenching ain't that bad for me. I got really bad ringing in my ears tho 😦 that is annoying.

Anxiety is really bad for me struggling to deal with it

That's all I have had. Never had depression. Just anxity. And it's the first time I have ever had anything like this happen. So at the start I found it so hard. It's so weird and makes you feel weird. But I think I'm starting to cope better with it. But still have bad days like today. I seem to have one good day. And 5 bad..

lets aim for 2 good 4 bad next week

Agreed 😃

Ryan does the anxiety wake you up at night does me around 3 am and keeps me awake till I have get up for work this anxiety has just come out of the blue its really doing my head in

It wakes me up sometimes. But I'm off work now had to get signed off. If I do wake up I just play on my phone and try and nod off. It came out the blue for me aswell. Had a panic attack one night and been anxious ever since thins was in July

same here lorraine

you would think after 6 months on this i should feel better

dont get me wrong but at the intial start bout 3 months i was grt all cleared up and thought thank god as thought i was losing it but since upping to 100 9 wks ago i am suffereing badagain

i went gp last week and all she said was " keep going "

i was so upset but that was her anz

off to gp tomo as i cant handle this anymore

i was grt ryan first few months but from dec last year i have been really ill with panic and my apetite has gone too and i have lost weight

I was on citalopram for 20 weeks and I felt the exact same. But I have switched to setraline 4 and half weeks ago. And I have felt better than I ever did on citalopram. But with my anxity I suffer from derelisation. Im only on 50mg and I don't want to go up till I have had at least 12 weeks on 50.. im hopeing 50 works for me

i really wanna come off this and i probably will from tomo and taper down like i did on my last ad which was citropram and want to try prozac and a anti anxiety med on top

as my friend had anxiety sooo bad and lost 3 stone in weight couldnt even leave the house but finally they gave him prozac and a add on which is quepine and he is a different person now back at work eating well and just happy

ps

i seriously dont think this ad is for anxiety and gps tend to hand them out without really diagnosing properly

never was like this on my other ad

i feel this med is destroying me

sorry if bit bleak but i am only being honest on how i feel

i have never had depression yet now i feel really low

i hope it works for you guys i really do but if u feel just not right then listen to your body and get off it

brill yes stay on the 50 mg as long as you can . as soon as i was upping i seemed to of got worse

i was on 25 for 7 days then 50 for a good while then 100 nov grt at first but then it all came back

i have never felt so bad cant even go to work and that is not like me as i luv my job and socialise but now i feel isolated

i will see wat gp says tomo x

I know how you feel Victoria I'm going to ring gp tomorrow see if can change medication as not helping with anxiety seems to be making it worse not better

Well good luck to you 😃 I have only been on sert 4 weeks I'm going to try for at least 12 and hopefully it might work.. my sister was on mitezipne or how ever it's spelt lol. And it helped her so that's my fall back plan if sert don't work. But like I say 1 day the 5 bad. So it's got to be doing something... 😃 good luck with gp tomorrow

it is lorraine

they say its a slow taking drug with the worst side effects so y dont the docs tell us this before we take it as gp knows how anxious we are already

i am defo coming off it but have you read up on withdrawel of this med its scared the life out of me

good spirits i am really hoping this works for you

keep us posted x

👍👍👍

Ryan was it mirtazpine your sister was on I've been told to try it obviously worked for your sister I was told will help me sleep aswell as help with anxiety

Victoria my gp did warn me about side affects but didn't think be that bad meant to make you better not worse

yeah gp said i may get start up effects but nothing like i have had its given me the worst anxiety this cant be right or we need a anti anxiety drug rather than ssri

but i would like to know about mirtazpine ?

is that a ad or wat ?

hi again lol

but was is this med ur sister is on and did she have bad anxiety ?

i have no issue with sleep as i feel tired all day ling but have noticed lately been waking up really early with butterflys in stomach and shakey

never had these effects before

Yes mirtazpine. She swears buy it. I turned it down. Because i I get up at 4 45 for work. And it helps you sleep. That's the only reason I'm on sertraline. She had really bad anxity. And it was not nic3 to watch. But now she's back at work. Got a new job 😃 got rid of her dead beat bf. And she happy again.

Yes it's ad but don't get bad side affects like sertraline

wooow so happy for her

wonder if i should try this

thank you for info but wat scares me is the withdrawal

have read up and its sooo scary

wonder if i could add that to mine

i mean withdrawal of sertraline

lol wat u said bout her bf

luckly i dont have that issue

but soo pleased she is better

Think I'm going to ask my doctor for mirtazpine tomorrow wot mg she on Ryan

Im not sure what mg she was the. I think 45 but not sure.

brilliant maybe try it x

keep me posted on gp app tomo

and i will do same x

Good luck 😃 x

dont think you can take the two together

but maybe have to taper off sertraline first x

All you can do is see 😃 but if it makes you better then it will be worth it

No don't think can i will just come off sertraline straight on to mirtazpine and take at night hopefully will help me sleep plus help with anxiety

i am ok for sleep its just anxiety for me x

keep me posted x

defo

thanx

Do you not suffer at night time with anxiety mine is worse than in day at night ?

morning hun

i get a little at night but mostly mornings at the worst knots in my tummy and it makes me worse

hows your apetite

Victoria I'm eating more than ever but some days the anxiety puts me of eating depends wot sort of day im having
