Back on Sertraline the beginning it is worst that I remember
Posted , 5 users are following.
I was on sertraline for 5 years and then i decided it was time to stop taking it. over a month i went from 50 to 25 to 12 to nothing. Well, after 4 months of not taking sertraline I started having panic attacks. My doctor put me back on sertraline and I having bad side effects. I don't remember being like this the first time. I am on day 10 not hungry at all. I have to make shakes to make sure I force something in my stomach. I am like a zombie. I have to take an hour nap in the morning after I take the pill to easy a little bit my sleepiness. Wednesday I got so stomach sick that I have to take something to don't vomit . I don't want to talk with people and I am usually Miss Social. I am at 25mg and the doctor said that it will incrise in to 50 on day 15. I just hope I will adapt to sertraline soon. I really thought because I was on sertraline before that I will not have many side effects but they are here and bad.

Am currently just starting Sertraline (day 7 @ 12.5mg) and even at such a low dose my anxiety has just ramped up through the roof.
So I don't know what it is I'm afraid but you're not alone in finding it hard to tolerate a drug you previously were ok on.

Gingemac1977 I was on 50mg of sertraline doing great for five years. But I gain weight with the pill and I wasn't able to lose the pounds at all. That's why I decide I was in a good place and ready to have a life with out sertraline and I was ok for 4 months and then I started having panick attacks and here I am back on it. The weird thing is that this time I cannot eat. I am not hungry at all!

Glad you are feeling a bit better as well Gorda, I always find my appetite goes when anxious so hopefully this will also improve for you soon.
