Sertraline day 7 50mg

[Suzyp98]

Been taking Sertraline for 7 days now its been a rough ride no sleep constant nausea high anxiety hot flushes all of which have eased off slightly although every time i take it at 10am exactly on 4 o clock the side effects come back can anyone advise please thank you.

It took 6 months for mine to completely go away, the first 2 weeks were the hardest for me. Try to take it easy whole you're still adjusting

I'm not sure if you're going to 'up' the dose or not but my symptoms went away once id increased the mg.
It will get better. Some people don't get any symptoms so you've had rotten luck, I feel rough for a week and then got better bit by bit. You've done the hardest bit now! Home straight!

Thank you 💜 today has been really difficult feel like iv gone 10 steps back when yesterday wasnt so bad im going to the docs on Monday for a review dont know whether she will up it or not.

My side affects after about 3 weeks. I remember just before this experiencing the most terrible anxiety and then it levelled out. Be kind to yourself. It will get better x

Thank you mrsdiddlydo iv almost given in a couple of times and stopped but im fighting on xx

I am currently 3.5 weeks in to a 50mg dose. I had really bad fatigue, couldn't keep my eyes open. It stopped about 10 days ago and it's been a massive improvement since then.

Keep going, it's worth it

Thank you twotired my mood has definitely lifted a bit but still pretty rubbish with the side effects im keeping going tho just about 😊

It does take a while to kick in. Make sure you are looking after yourself x

Twotired i am trying to yes been on them before dont remember it being this hard last time x

Sertraline day 11 does anyone else feel a bit strange roughly about 6 hours after taking their daily dose it still makes me a bit nauseous and panicky around that daily mark

I take mine at night so don't experience that I'm afraid.

I second taking it at night to sleep through most of the side effects, Hang in there they do fade hope you start to feel the benefits of it soon.

Thanks Fairydust i did toy with the idea of taking it at night but im not sleeping well so im not sure it would make that much diff il just battle on they are fading slightly x

I think it depends on the person I know a lot of people can’t take it at night as it keeps them awake however it had the opposite effect on me it would make me so sleepy when I first started but that eventually wore off. Glad it’s starting to fade abit hope it works for you!😊x

Yes its had the complete opposite effect on me and my brain is wide awake plus im still fairly anxious so its on red alert too today has been a little better 😊 x
