You may be a slow metabolizer, too. Â Apparently there is a DNA test they can do now to determine this.

going through the same since about a month now...was under control for some time and just kicked in again. Have been dealing with panic attacks and GAD since 2008. Therapy, clinic, anti-depressants helped and keep helping but sometimes i go through these periods. Let it come...face it and laugh at the panic...let if flow right through you...i try the same...works most of the time.

90% of us hate starting this drug, but ask them the same question after taking it for some time and it's a totaly different outcome.
​sertraline is one of the best out there, but comes at a cost, anything from 2 - 12 weeks can be the time it takes to feel better, most get results aftre 4 weeks some 6 weeks and the minority 12 weeks,
dont consider stopping until you have been on the meds much longer, if you are very ill and you are not suffering any of the more serious symptoms for example rashes swelling then please try and push through it,it will be worht the struggle, to stop now after 2 weeks and start something else isn't really going to benifit you, because it most likley will be another ssri med.Â
​i pressume you are on 50mg with an outlook to increase to 100mg after approx 1 month, DR will check you prior to see how you are going, anything less that 50mg wont really be of much benifit. also depending on your age dont drink, dont take grapefruit juice and dont take st johns wart. take care you will be fine
