Anxiety
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hiya I suffer with anxiety,I have recently been prescribed sertraline 50mg, after taking the first tablet before I went to sleep,it made me really poorly,so I went back to the doctors and the doctor told me to take half of the tablet,I've been taking the tablets for about a week now, the side effects are starting to go,but today I went back to the doctors and I was told to take the whole tablet,I'm going on holiday on Tuesday,so in just 4 days and I don't know if I should wait till I get back because I'm scared about feeling poorly and being away...I'm already really anxious about going away and I'm not sure if I can go away...

Hi, if the 50 mg made you feel poorly, maybe wait till you get back just to be sure!! Don't want to be ruining a holiday wondering if you going to be poorly!! Why do you not think you can go !?

I've been on sert for 8 mths now. In my opinion I would cease taking the tablets until you return from the hol & start again when you're back as the first month is a rocky road but I would also ask your doctor for propranolol (beta blockers) which will keep your physical anxiety symptoms at bay.
I had to take the propranolol at the start of my sert journey because the sert sent my anxiety thru the roof. I'm not saying that will definitely happen to you but just in case (as it seems it has to many on here) I would delay beginning sert till u get home. Hope this helps.
