    Wow! 50mg at once or through the day? It seems like a really high dose to start on. I was told that you should never take more than 20 mg to start on this medication. What time of the day are you taking it?

    I started sertaline 3 weeks ago, I started on 50mg, I was on citalopram and came off them due to my anxiety, My anxiety has got a lot better but my depression has got worse, but the doctor said it's still early days. I have had no side effects which is great.
