Yep all normal, I am on 50mg per day 5th week now evrything back to normal.
1st week no side effects 2nd week the dreaded Diarrhia 3rd week same, I spoke to chemist who recommended immodium instant they dissolve on the tounge, i took 2 initially that stopped it for about 2 days still loose but could manage it. then 3rd week the dreaded Dia was back plus sick feeling, took 1 immodium instant stopped it for 3 days, 4th week I took 1 again. the 5th week on sertraline no dreaded dia no sickie feeling, no headache.
I was also waking up in the night with all sorts of nasty thoughts, so although this all sounds awfull they are side effects and if you read the threads 80% of us have suffered the same, so dont be alarmed its a normal side effect which will go.
In my 3rd week i saw GP as I thought 50mg might be to much in one dose, I asked if I could break tab in half take half with breakfast and half with evening meal he said as long as I had the 50mg in 24 hrs that was fine.
When I first started them I also found better to Take seratine in the early evening, that way a lot of side effects calm down whilst you are asleep. You hang on in there really worth it.Your not on your own by any means all normal Yuk but normal

Unfortunately it doesn't ever go away , I have had lots of counselling , but taking 100 mg daily and you need to get rid of any negative "friend " x
