Posted , 2 users are following.
Hi everyone as any1 ever tapered off 100mgs ? If so is it best to go down to 75mgs or down to 50mgs. The doctor adviced me to drop straight down to 50mgs . So that I can go back on my old 1s. As any1 ever been on sertraline and then swapped back to thier old1s. Any advice or reassurance please 🌹

Hi Martin did you ever suffer from racing heartbeat, feeling detached and depersonalisation, it’s so scary like I Av lost myself. I’ve reduced my dosage from 100mgs today down to 75mgs. For a week then 50mgs for a week. Then nothing for a week. Then I’m going back on my old 1s which was paroxatine, any advice or reassurance please 🌹

Yes defo rapid heartbeat on the 100mg and just no motivation to do anythin regards deperonaliztion thats the reason i tried these cause iv been feeling spaced out detached for 5 years the only thing that helps is xanax . So i think i gave sertraline a fair shot so i no there just not for me so maybe il try a different one when i wean off these . Its a nightmare when you give a drug so long and they dont work then we have withdrawals to look forward to 😠

Do you think I should go from 100mgs down to 75mgs? Or go down to 50mgs which the doctor told me to. I started on 50mgs then went up to 100mgs 🌹
