Monthly mood swings and increased anxiety

[filee777]

I am in a bit of a conundrum, I posted recently about insomnia on my AD's (sertraline) and though this is easing, i am now taking 1/2 a tablet 4/5 nights a week and having 2/3 nights off, I am becoming social anxious again and finding it difficult to contain my mood swings when I am due a period or to ovulate. I suppose the real answer would possibly be to up my meds? I am on 100mg of Sert a day, but then what if the insomnia comes back? I am almost scared to speak to my doctor about it (if i can ever get an appointment with her) but at the same time it is seriously taking over my life.

I have a meeting with the 'emergency' psyche team in a couple of weeks time and i can take more time off work if needed until then but I wondered if anyone had any wise advice for me?

I do not know about this filee, but wish you the best, did not want to read and run.

Thank you Notan I am debating whether to go back to work at the end of this week or take another two weeks off.

Husband is fully supportive, amazing actually bless him

I just want to speak to a psychiatrist or one of my usual doctors but its impossible to get an appointment

filee if you can afford it, take time off work, it might help. Try to talk to someone about how you feel now? Even if you just talk it might help (I should listen to my own advice). All the best.
