    Hi Vanessa, I have tried magnesium but didn't really notice any difference although there are many different ones so it's worth researching which ones best xx

      I think I'm going to try magnesium citrate, I've read that is the best one. Trying whatever I can now, aside from upping my sertraline anymore, that will be my last resort. Like I said, I've read that it will help but I wanted to know if people actually tried it and the outcome. Thanks for your reply🙂

      You'll have to let me know how you get on. I was taken vitamin d and omega 3 too aswell but stopped when I started sertaline. Do you think I'd be ok to use them still? Xx

      I take vitamin D3, although I increased my dose of sertraline in July from 100 to 150 and I haven't been well since. I'm not as bad as I was but I'm far from where I'd like to be. I'm planning on taking magnesium, calcium and vitamin D3 and see what happens.

      I've only recently started on sertaline so got away to go yet. I may ask my dr if I can take them with the sertaline as I know it has interactions with some drugs. Before taking sertaline I used l-theanine which was calming for me but again I'm not sure if I can that that too as it's a amino acid xx
