Good luck, hope you feel better soon.

Hope you feel better soon. The world is a grim lonely place when you are sleep deprived- I had similar a few weeks ago kicked off with anxiety. benzodiazepines really helped the anxiety but don't help me sleep which was sorted with zolpidem. There are lots of options to help you to sleep and then it becomes much easier to address the other stuff. You are doing the right thing in asking for help. Xx

Thank you all for your help. I am now in hospital being observed and they have stopped Sertraline. Tomorrow they will make a plan for another medication.

Glad to hear you're getting some help :) Hope things improve soon.

Great news, hopefully you'll be back on top really soon.

That's great. I hope you feel safe and supported. Wishing you a good nights sleep. Xx
