sertraline so tired can't be bothered

Hi

I don't know what I can say to help you, but I just thought I wanted to come on here and try to let you know it does get better and the medication will kick in at some point. You often feel worse before you feel better and as its been four weeks I would maybe contact the gp - they should want to see you after a few weeks anyway when starting or increasing meds. What you've described is depression...that not being bothered feeling is so difficult. Speak to doc about your symptoms not improving. Do you have support at home? Have they referred you to CBT or counselling- hopefully they have!

Its hard to believe things will get better but stay positive.

I think I got a bit like that with it early on, it passes.

I am only on 50mg though

Hi. I do know how you feel. I am at that stage, I get up in the morning feeling tired, I have a cuppa, fall to sleep, wake up and then go back to bed for an hour. I have been on them for about 3 months now. I feel better in myself, although by no means perfect, but I do feel very tired and lethargic, I just hope that it passes as I really don't want to be changing medication again. 

I AM ON 200mg 

 

Hi. Stick it out. It took three months for mine to settle and before it got the best results. i felt very tired and hazey. Guess you have to rest and do whay is best for you. It's been a life changer for me and give it time to adjust to your system. It's worth it. Don't mix with alcohol and dont Miss a dose. That set me back a lot.
