Does emotional stress make things worse?
Posted , 2 users are following.
Just over 2 weeks on sertraline, was seeing slight glimmer of hope, just had a big falling out with my son, not been at all supportive during withdrawal, always been like treading on eggshells with him. Resulting in husband and I likely to spend Christmas Day on our own, anxiety now awful so is any sort of stress like this likely to make things lot worse?

Hello Lemanna, so sorry to hear you've had a falling out with your son, it's never easy walking on egg shells especially when your tapering, sadly unless your son has been through depression /anxiety he won't really understand what your going through, hopefully you'll have a chat and sort things out before Christmas. I really hope you don't suffer any setbacks Huge hugs. Xx

Thanks he has been through it few years ago when lost his job, and I was constantly there for him but not two way street. Got toxic mother so family partly caused my problems. Only seen him 3 times this year and never rings only about hours drive away. Trying to think it is what it is, but not really helped my recovery! Sent me really venemous e mail so husband & i both decided xmas be better on our own.
