Sertraline prolonged side effects?

Hi

I was on sertraline 50mg for about a year and had no side effects at all, great. Came off it for about 5 months but had a really bad health anxiety episode and needed to go back on it. Been back on the same 50mg dose since October and feel like my body just doesn't like it anymore! I take it on a morning but found the last few weeks I'm feeling dizzy on and off, had headaches more frequently too (although I work on a screen 95% of the time which I know won't help).

Has anyone been on it, had a break then found that their body just doesn't get on with it anymore?

I stopped taking it in favour of another medication. But did t get on well with it, so went back on Sertaline. I only had mild side effects for a few days after each dosage increase - nausea, and mild dizziness All good since reaching my desired dose.
