Anyone else had a relapse?

Posted , 5 users are following.

I've been on Sertraline now for 12 months, on 50mg, and to be honest, I've been pretty ok. Back at work, and actually enjoying life. But recently my thoughts have started racing again, I've had bouts of sleeplessness, panic attacks etc and now I'm scared I'm heading right back to the beginning of the illness. I have negative thoughts in my head all day again, and I know to carry on with life, but of course, I'm now scared that I'm going to end up depressed again, and I hated that. Life is certainly tough at the moment again. Anyone else had relapses? How did you deal with them? Any advice greatly appreciated, or any reference to personal experience
