    yeah im on sertaline and propanol 7-8 days in still feel bad but its slowly getting better at 1st my whole body felt weird bad headaches dizzy hot/burny skin general horrible feelings allover not sleeping eating worse anxiety but apparently whilst taking these its normal to feel like this at 1st you just need to get your head round it and not panic youll get there in the end
