I need hope, 18 days on sertraline 75 mg.
Posted , 5 users are following.
I was 2 weeks on 25 mg, 2 weeks on 50 mg, and now 18 days on sertraline. For the past few days I've been feeling like in a dream state. It's really scaring me. I heard it's depersonalization/derealization. I didn't have this before sertraline. I'm taking this for depression. My depression is no better and this anxiety with dream like state is scary. The benzos I've tried aren't helping. Please someone, tell me you've also experienced this on sertraline and if I keep at it, it will go away. How long did the suggested dose take for you to get over this.

I have been taking Sertraline for 11 weeks and at the beginning thought I would have to come off them as side effects so dreadful, nausea, heightened anxiety, agitation, not sleeping, not wanting to go out etc but I persevered and after 4 weeks began to see a gradual improvement. Up until yesterday I have felt just like my old self but having a slight blip at the moment. I am told this is normal.
Do carry on if you can as they do help.

I started on 50mg but after two weeks my docror suggested I halve it and take 25mg as I was having such dreadful side effects.
I have continued on 25mg but am now wondering if I should up it to 50mg.
