Just started for the second time…

I were on 50mg sertraline in 2018 and stayed on it for 1 year before coming off because i felt okay. I am now back on it (only day 1) and i guess just looking for a bit of reassurance because i remember how horrendous my side effects were the first time.

I feel very out of body, my anxiety has ramped up and feel veey woozy. Is this normal?

    Yes. Was on Setraline about 6 years ago and stopped when I felt ok. I got back on it about 3 months ago as my anxiety came back. I went through hell for first 2 weeks just like the first time. Now I am fine.

    Hey Lauren,

    same as yourself i find myself back on sertraline. 50mg.

    i was doing well on it for around 2 years then like many, decided to wean off because i felt better. Had a relapse of anxiety and now going through those horrible side effects again. Everything is just ramped up. Feel nervous, low, stomach in bits, fatigue.... just honestly so horrible! It will get better though, just need time and reassurance!!

    wish you the best
