Recovery on Sertraline

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi, I have been on Sert for 14 weeks now and just this week I have started doing a bit more during the day and I feel 50-60% myself. I have been on 150 and now 200 for the past 3 days. My depression has been so deep that I haven't felt positive emotions such as joy, love, satisfaction etc. for a while now. Do emotions come back once you start feeling better? Thank you x

      Hi Chris, yes, I am the same as you then.... Has your depression been very severe as well? I am just starting to leave the house more but only if I feel a bit better. I am only seeing people I feel comfortable with at the moment as well. We have to keep going and it will have to get better one day.... x
