Sertraline
Posted , 4 users are following.
Day 8 of taking 50mg sertraline cried my eyes out this morning, just fed up of feeling this way. I'm currently on holiday with my family and I'm just not enjoying myself and just feel every day is a struggle. When do these meds kick in, if ever?.

They will take at a very minimum 2-4 weeks and full effects can be anywhere from 2 months + everyone is different! But I feel your pain friend I was on holiday with friends for a week (and this was before I had the meds) and I genuinely thought I was gonna die it was like a wee long panic attack, the fact you are away from home amplifies the feelings 10x, just stick in pal and you will feel the benefits but the road to it via the tablets is a rocky one, I had numerous symptoms including increased emotion, mood swings, increased anxiety, sleeplessness, over sleeping, feeling drained, among other things but unfortunately this is a gamble we must take in order to get back on the path to feeling better
Any questions or anything don't hesitate to message me
Good luck and I hope you try and enjoy the remainder of your holiday

Thanks for your reply, anixety seems to have eased a bit but it's so hard to motivate myself to do anything. Had the odd suicide thought, but doc said that's normal, still it's quite frightening having them thoughts. Only had depression and anixety for about four weeks, before then I was absolutely fine, going to work, going out etc. Now I can't go anywhere alone. Yes your probably right, bring away from home maybe making me feel worse but I was hoping it was going to do some good for me. I appreciate someone to talk to so thanks. Hope you are ok.

Six weeks seems so long!, hope it's sooner. Such a struggle.

50mg and on my 8th day, cried this Morning just because I'm so fed up of feeling like this. on holiday at the moment which was a big deal for me just leaving the house , the rest of my family are all excited and want to to do lots of things, go beach etc and I'm just numb and don't want to do anything. Shouldnt be hard on myself I know. Only peace I get is when I finally sleep at night.
