Still exhausted after 6 months of sertraline

I’ve been on sertraline since jan and although it has helped me so much with anxiety, I am still soo tired through the day and having to nap in work and still occasionally have wobbles with my anxiety and scary thoughts. Does anyone else have the same?

I am only 2 weeks in. I am exhausted, and feeling extremely de motivated. Still anxious, hopefully will improve.

I have been on it since Jan. Energy is ok. I take it exactly the same time every day first thing. Any more than half an hour difference and I don't feel right. I feel spent by late evening which is good as I can sleep. If I don't sleep enough I feel dreadful. I also cut back sugar and caffeine. Before that I had awful anxiety. I can still have off days, if I am worrying about something, but not overwhelming like before. The tiredness could be related to iron levels?

Thanks lemonbalmtea- I am borderline hypothyroid so I may get another blood test at the doctors to check if it’s changed (I’m only 24 so annoying have these problems already! 😭)
