Please talk to me about your experiences, does it help?

Iv tried paroxitine, fluoxetine, citalopram, promethazine, diazepam and probably others iv forgotten about previously at various points in my life. Don't particularly feel anything other than promethazine helped v much and can't take promethazine as it knocks me out too much

It's the only thing that agrees with me ... Makes you feel sick for about 2 weeks the. That's it xxx

I've just started on sertraline and I'm feeling nauseous and quite dizzy/spaced out. I also have quite a dry mouth and my hands are tremorring (partly due to anxiety but definitely more pronounced since starting sertraline) Everything I've read suggests these initial side effects will go soon and I'm hopeful that this will work where fluoxetine and mirtazipine have failed.

I switched from Citalopram to Sertraline without any side effects. I'm finding it better to be honest. I'm more awake.

Does it actually make a noticeable difference to you?

I think so. I was very anxious and Citalopram wasn't touching it.
