Dear all

Would much appreciate to hear your experience or advice.

I tried to set myself on Sertraline 50mg for 6 months but had too many side effects and decided to taper off in 3 months with strips. Now, 10 weeks later, I still have nasty withdrawal effects - brainfog, interrupted sleep, tinitus, and mood swings.

I then tried to reinstall 1 mg Setraline but have immediate strong side-effects such as anxiety, feeling depressed and dry mouth.

It seems I am very sensitive to Sertraline - have others experienced this?
