    from 125 to 137 is not a diffrence , may be you need 150 . wait till week 12 or 13 then discuss with your doctor .

      im not posting a negitive post , im saying what my psych told me when i needed to up my dose i used to take 100 then he upped me to 150 after 11 weeks on 100 .

      this is my experience and you are asking for different experiences we are not doctors here to say a professional advice .

      sorry for what you felt and good luck .

    For certain very sensitive people 10 mg of Sertraline most definitely makes a difference, and side effects appear. Everyone is different. When the side effects reappear with a dose increase many people on this forum insist that the Sertraline is working. Do not lose faith as this is a slow process for the majority of people.
