Dear all,

After I have spent last 2 weeks reading this forum, today I have decided to sign in and ask for support and help. I am in my 3rd week on Sertraline and I simply don't feel great. First week on 25mg was horrific, I had every single side effect possible. Then last two weeks on 50mg. First week was ok. I could function and do little things. However, last days I simply feel bad. My anxiety is again all over the place forcing me to live inside my house. Thank god for my wonderful husband who takes care of everything without single complain. I am slowly loosing hopes to be back to an "old me". If someone told me a year ago I will be suffering from anxiety and taking medicines for it , I would not believe them. But after my worse anxiety attack ended up in the hospital, I know you can not take your mental health for granted. Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and wish everyone a great day.

    Good morning everyone. New side effect, vivid dreams! Last night I dreamt I was best friends with Meghan Markle and we went shopping together, guess it could have been worse.
