Sertraline increase help

[gratefulmuma]

Hello,

thankyou for reading. I'm on day 23 of my increase from 50- 75 sertraline.. I was feeling better a week ago but the last two days just awful- very low and spaced out.. and scared.. I would have thought any side effects would be gone by now but thinking this may not be the right medicine for me and I should go back to fluoxetine...

im finding it very hard to take care of my two kids...

has any one else out there experienced this after 3 weeks of sertraline increase?

thankyou so much in advance

Hi Op, no I haven’t but if you were feeling better I would give it a bit more time. 50-75mg is still a relatively moderate dose so you could go higher.

Thankyou @Squiggles23 I was feeling better than this on my lower dose of fluoxetine so thinking maybe that was the better drug for me.. it was more of an experiment to swap as I had been on fluoxetine for so long and wasn't sure it was helping with my anxiety anymore but this is definitely worse.. thinking I'll go back asap.

thankyou so much for your reply 🙏

No worries at all. I hope you start feeling better! ❤️‍🩹
