I have been on sertraline now for 9 weeks , which I take alongside mitazipine. This was following a prelonged spell of serve anxiety and moderate depression. I have experienced this a number of years ago however have been well and not on any medication for 8 years. This current period would range from panic attacks, spells of horrendous energy and irritability and racing thoughts and uncontrollable emotions and intrusive thoughts . I have worked my way up the doses and now take 150mg daily. I have had some periodic stages of feeling more myself however my head is still busy and my head is racing alot of the time. my intrusive thoughts feel more suppressed however my head still feels like its racing daily.

Did any sertraline users notice a big improvement in this post week 9? or experience similar anxiety symptoms?

also did anyone experienced increase in anxiety and irritablity when increasing the dose?

A part of me is concerned that the tablets are not working or having the effect needed, any personal experiences and advice would be great.

Thanks
