tiredness

Hi, i'm on sertraline and it does make me really tired although i love my sleep anyway so i'm maybe not a good comparisson. Do you take yours at night or in the morning. How is your anxiety now? :lol:

Hi Boog 100, i also love my sleep though just struggling a bit with it just now. My anxiety is a bit better now still having good and bad times. I have probably suffered with anxiety and ocd all my life but i had a really bad 2 weeks on holiday in Menorca, i wanted to come home on the first day i ended up having to see a doctor to give me something to help me cope.How is your anxiety?

Hi all

What you also need to remember is that depression and anxiety can make you feel very tired.

Go easy on yourselves, no drug is a miracle - it takes them and us working together to get things back in sync.

Good luck

Other things can make you feel tired too. For example it took me years to realise that I'm always really tired a couple of days before my period starts. Having finally sussed it I regard the tiredness as a way of realising that my period is likely to start the next day. :D
