    To answer you as honestly as i can: I didnt have anxiety before i started sertraline the first time. It was only after i stopped that i developed this anxiety. 

    Probably not the answer you wanted to hear but its the truth. I think im worse off because of the sertraline because of that. But i took it for 18 months, you havent been taking it as long so hopefully you bounce back. 

    I know its rough. My mental issues were very mild before ever taking any meds. I hope to one day be completely rid of them.
