Stopped sertraline after only 6 days due to bad side effects

Posted , 6 users are following.

I started 50mg sertraline for anxiety 12 days ago, I stopped taking them after day 6 as couldn't hack the side effects, now I'm worried that it's done more harm than good, I keep thinking I've damaged myself by stopping and wish I never started in the first place! Back at the Dr's Wednesday, just looking for some reassurance, I have a strange feeling in my nose other than the over thinking I'm fine.
