Hey, currently on 50g sertraline for anxiety been on them now for year & a half, all the side affects I had at the begging have worn off except from my legs...(restless leg syndrome) cramps, when I wake up and get out of bed I feel like am going to break my feet they are so stiff. Has anyone else had this problem? Never had this b4, starting to dread going to bed incase I cramp up

Thanks for reading

Hi Laura

Sorry I've just started on them a week ago so don't have an answer to your question but I wondered how long the side effects take to pass. I feel tired and heavy and little spaced out now and again. Xx

Hi there, not on Sertraline but do suffer from this- it's incredibly painful first thing. I have to stretch them and walk around for a while before they loosen up. I was told it was from running (which I've now had to stop).

I’m on Sertraline, no issues. If it continues, ask for another type.
