Went to GP no more Diaspam, I explained how Axiours and sad I was feeling, he gave ame a few sleeping pills, and a phone number for the Mental Health Services,
I Just broke down and cried he just said give the Sertraline time to work and that you got sever depression and Anxiety and Diaspam can make it worse.
Just got to get on with it, it seems.

It just takes time at least 8 weeks. Benzos like diazapam and Ativan aren't the answer as you are at risk of dependency.
Are you seeing a psychologist ? They will explain what's going on and arm you with useful tips on dealing with your anxiety . Just hang in there, you will have some bad days and some great days too. But your Dr is right, you need to give it time to do it's thing, it's not going to change you brain chemistry over night or a week. In the mean time I'd go see a psychologist that specializes in anxiety disorders.

Hi Shauna, thank yoh for your kind words, yes I went for a walk yesterday for an hour. I felt Axiours and frightened but i I’ve over come it.
Ialso have Rheumatoid arthritis, so my Rhumotolist asked my doctor to give me 10mg Nortriptline as this will help me with pain and 😴.
However, at the moment i’ve got a weeke supply of Zopiclone 7.5 mg to help me until the Sertraline kicks in.
Just over two weeks i’ve been on Sertraline.
Once again thanks for giving me strength and courage to carry on.
God bless you.

That is exactly what my dr told me about my Dizapam!! If I did not take it .. I am not sure I would get through these anxiety attacks . My depression is better .. but the anxiety is awful ! I only take 2.5 mg when I need it . I just decreased my Zoloft from 125 to 100mg three days ago and this anxiety is awful ! My hair has been falling out by the hand fulls . This has got to stop !
