Still having panic attacks on sertraline 100mg

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hey I Started on 50mg back on 21st Dec and now been on 100mg sertraline for 11 days. Had a couple panic attacks this after noon just sat watching TV. I controlled my breathing so they didn't get to bad but still feel awful. I'm thinking either the 100mg isn't enough or I just need to wait longer. Is anyone else still having panic attacks whilst on meds?
