Panic attack after 6 months on sertraline ??

also have been on 75mg sertraline for about 3 months..saw a small improvement..better sleep for my insomnia..now I fell back into my insomnia with anxiety..talked to my phys..she told me it seems as if I am reacting to the medication..wants me to drop back to 62.5..see if that works...need sleep..can be a real roller coaster

Have you had anything more stressful to deal with in the past few days? Could it be a reaction to something like that ?

Hopefully it will pass, even people not taking anti depressant drugs can have days when they are more anxious than normal and cannot attribute it to any reason. If you are no better in a few days go back to your GP.

Hi, I wouldn't jump to any decision just yet. If you are stable on 100mg until recently then I would continue and see how I felt in a week or so. Whilst I ind it does help, there is no ''magic pill'' sadly, always worth looking at getting CBT or look into a Mindfullness course too. Tablets alone are helpful but rarely are the sole answer. I have two teenagers and believe me my son is 14 and knows how to push my buttons, life with kids is stressful as much as it's rewarding !! espeically when you are not feeling your best. I know you are eager to feel well, but be aware that WHO guidelines say that once a person feels they are ''treated'' with AD therepy, they should continue to take it for a further 4-6 months to avois relapse.....fingers crossed it's just a blip....or go and talk to your dr....whatever you do do not come off 100mg quickly, or you'll get discontinuation side effects !!
