sorry to keep posting guys but feeling pretty desperate

I'm about 16 days of sertraline 50mg, swapping from citalopram

the past few days have been getting increasingly difficult with worse anxiety and mood. yesterday I had a panick attack and it's got do bad today I had to send my 5 year old back home to his mum and feel so guilty about it.

I'm really struggling and everyone says to carry on. will it get easier because I dont know how long I can feel like this.

    Hey toria! How you today?

    I get these crying type spells .

    I dont know is from pain or what.

    I also get like i said above which makes life uncomfortable.

    I tend to just lay around and then get up and try to go gym.

    Thanks!

      you will have that back only if you really decide to take care of you mental health . The physical health will come after.

      Make some priorities!

      If celexa helped you once that means you can respond to a med so be more confident.

      maybe if you had give the lexapro a better long shot, the tiredness would have dissapear you know.

      And like we have told you, tiredness is the first thing to come and the last to go cause its relate to your depression state.

      But hey, you know what you do!
