Still getting symptoms

Posted , 4 users are following.

I'm still getting withdrawal symptoms 6 weeks after my last sertraline tablets (50mg). I came off them too fast I feel (2 weeks tapering) and have gone through every symptom possible. I feel one symptom eases and then another comes and they just seem to come and go day to day! I would relax a bit more if 6 weeks hadnt gone by and if I didnt keep reading withdrawal symptoms should be gone after 4 weeks (2 according to my dr!) You start to think something else is wrong the longer it goes on :-( At the moment my main symptom is feeling light headed...

    Hi there

    Please go back to your doctor and explain all this.

    You most certainly did taper off the sertraline far too quickly, which is why you're feeling so unwell, darling.

    Let us know how you get on.

    Love Tess  xxxx

    How long were you on adrenaline for and what was the diagnosis?

      Death, I should think, lol. Adrenaline is an emergency drug and has to be used with caution. nobody is on it long term because they'd die.

      I was on it for about 9 months. I was on it for low mood and anxiety. I think this was caused initially by low iron symptoms
