I found a group on this topic but discussion had closed. So here's my concern. I was on sertraline 50 mg for 6 weeks. Finally felt some relief around week5 but not enough to stop the daily Xanax extended relief. NP upped the dose to 100mg but because I'm very sensitive to these meds I chose to go to 75mg first. After just 2 days i developed a severe headache which has lasted 7 days. I want to wait it out because I'm so afraid of starting over with a new drug. has anyone experienced headaches with dose changes? How long did they last? Will they go away? Thanks.
