Struggling with Sertraline

[PebblePlush]

Day 26 of Sertraline for anxiety and whilst I've had a few better days, on the whole I'm feeling worse and fed up of the side effects.

I've had a headache for 2 days that I can't seem to shift and the anxiety I had before was a lot milder to how I've felt since starting these.

I am ready to quit though everything I read says it can take 6-8 weeks to feel the benefits. Just don't feel I can go more weeks of feeling so rubbish. Anyone else persevere with them and felt better in the end?

Keep going. It worked for my daughter but you’ve got to persevere.

Thanks Rain for the encouragement. Hard going when it makes you feel so rough though. Do you know how long it took for your daughter to start feeling better?

It took minimum 2 months but she ended up needing a high dose. It may have been 3 before things really stabilised. She has a full life now though and can function.
