    Hi Lauren,

    I am on week 4 and a half of setraline, and it has got better, but i seem to get a few good days, and then a few bad days. i up'd my dose to 75mg 10 days ago, the side effects were horrendous! i do have really good days and then like this morning, i woke up shaking and really anxious and i don't know why!.......its so frustrating..... i keep getting horrible headaches and a tingly head too, which then worries me more. I think the bad days are getting less, but im hoping they continue to get better.....

      Hey! We are similar then ill be 5 weeks on Friday. My anxiety has lessened loads but its still the low mood and the intrusive tjoughts that are still there now and again, in a morning though i feel terrible for the first hour or so. I dont really have any physical side effects anymore which i guess is good. Why did you up to 75mg? Are you still suffering bad in a morning? x
