I'd been on antidepressants for about six months. At Xmas I ran out and noticed that I was suddenly I felt much more with it. Rather than sitting staring into space all day I was getting stuff done, housework etc.

6 weeks later and I'm still mostly better at getting things done but my mood is seriously slipping. Most of the time I'm fine but I keep crying over stupid things.

It could be hormones (AF was late due to illness so that may have messed me up) and have also cut down on BFing. But I didn't want to risk getting any worse. So this morning I started taking the ADs again (only back to original dose, not double as I was on)

AIBU? Should I stick it out or what? Feel like I've failed again TBH.

(also was on minimum dose to start with and there was no middle ground between that and double)

Ah, ok :)

It might be that sertraline isn't the right one for you, have you tried others?
