I'm on day 4 now and I just need a bit of reassurance to keep taking sertraline 50mg
I havnt noticed any side effects yet apart from stomach pain which is pretty mild but the increased anxiety is killing me
it's making it really difficult and I'm not coping with it.
I need to keep taking them and hope it passes but cant see the light at the end of the tunnel.
is it meant to be this difficult?

Hi, dont worry just keep on fighting . It takes a few weeks to level out. Then you will feel splendid. Their is a silver lining behind the cloud.

Hey, im day 4 too this is the second time on sertraline 50mg. i came off 2 months ago because i was feeling better but i crashed last week and have since started again, because i think i stopped too soon.
my anxiety is through the roof today too and im struggling but i remember this feeling last time and trying to tell myself it wont be forever and i will feel better again.
hang in there love.

I've seen a few people say the second time round was a lot harder for them. I found the second time round I was on citalopram a lot harder too.
what are your symptoms? x

Hang in there, it took me 20 weeks to feel a substantial difference!
1 year later I was better again and now 2 years later I'm almost 100%
Be strong, you can do it! 😃
