New to Sertraline
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi all! Im just been given sert by my doctor, im currently on 50mg and started on wednesday. I was previously on citalopram 40mg, I started themin september 14 and had s8me good times on them but sadly after 10 months I wasnt feeling much benefit from them and decided to change. So far I feel on sert I seem to have got slighly worse, which im not worried about as its a new med and generally accepted u get worse before u get better. Im interested to find out what I can expect being on sert, and would apprecate any stories other people have....Many thanks ...Luke

I've been on sertraline for 6 weeks now I was on citalapram a few years ago was good for a long time but stoped working ) anyway the first two week on this med 50 mg were the hardest my anxiety hit the roof it took two week to settle down and I was moody a lot spoke to gp after 5 weeks at that time still feeling a bit down so he said up the dose to 100mg so I did it's my 8th day on 100mg and a feel better I think it starting to kick in thank got like I said the first few weeks are the hardest but stick it out it will be worth it in the end and remember people are different some people feel better after 2 weeks and some can take up 2 8 weeks to feel the bennifit hope all goes well keep in touch and let me know how u go on thanks don

Don't feel that way the doctor is there to help u just go and explain to the doctor what you've just said on here we all need help at some point in our lives I'm going though a bad time at the moment and felt the same at one point calling the doc 3/4 times a week I though I must be doing his head in but when I explained to him he said that's what I'm here for hope all goes well xx
