Anxiety and depression

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi all I’ve been suffering from anxiety/depression and overthinking, I’ve also been feeling depersonalisation. Like I’m a different person, liked I’ve lost myself. I’ve been on 100mgs now for the past 7wks with little progress. Can any1 help please or reassure me as it’s so scary . As any1 else ever felt like this, could it be that I’m ill or could it be to do with the sertraline.thanx all🌹

    I don't know, I get depersonalisation too and it's rubbish. I have started to see a counsellor, I'm paying private at 35 pounds an hour, I've only had 1 session so far but I came out exhausted, like I had spent the whole hour crying but I hadn't.

    I'm only in 25 at the moment. The good news it that I have felt this way before and got better, this restarted after a virus i had at Christmas, I am also due in my period over the next few days so probably feeling worse. Ive found someone in you tube called thomas hall who does hypnotherapy, don't know of it works but it feels really relaxing at the time
