My DD takes it, coming up 2 years now. She was having panic attacks as well as big meltdowns from her anxiety and suicidal ideation before she started on it. There was maybe 3-4 days when she was even worse and that was it for side effects. When we went up dose 6 months later I don't remember her having any bad effects from it. I hope any negative effects from it pass quickly, if not take it moment by moment and if it's get to much please call your GP or mental health professional who prescribed it. I'm on a different antidepressant and had a couple that I reacted really badly to (never been on setraline) but it was worth it to weather that and come out the other side and be in a place where everything didn't feel completely overwhelming and impossible.
