Hello!
I've been on Sertraline for quite a while for anxiety. I come off and it tends to come back, despite what feels like half a life time of therapy and every other lifestyle changes since.
However, since being on it it's sort of stopped working and, to add insult to injury, I've gained around a stone. I'm a small person so this stone looks very noticeable.
The obvious answer is to possibly switch medications, but given I had such awful start up side effects, I'm - quite frankly - terrified to.
I'm therefore stuck on a medication that isn't working and is making me fat. But haven't the guts to change!
I wondered if anything else has made the switch successfully and painlessly? I've been on both Sertraline and Citalopram before.
Any reassuring stories would be 💯
