Coming off sertraline due to weight gain, sever constipation help.

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hi

Just come here for some support/advice.

I have been on 50mg of sertraline for 18 months now, my weight has gone up significantly, I suffer from constipation and extreme fatigue. I have been tested for thyroid issues as my mum suffers with underactive thyroid but my results come back as normal.

I am wondering if my issues are linked to the sertraline and if I should start to wean off them.

Any advice or tips or support welcome from anyone else who has been through a similar experience.
