Today was another great day. I am super happy. Feels like sticking with it is doing good. Still have the shakes and little anxious but have zanax to help if it gets bad. Hoping this keeps on coming! Keep strong and brave. I was scared last week it wasn't working. Now I feel more confident that I got the needed help.
Nice 1 hope it keep up for you it's nice to here good storeys can't wait till I get their 😁
Hi thats really good to hear a positive post! How long have you been on them and what dosage because im struggling at the moment thanks
I was loosing hope but I been seeing the little changes that are in a positive way. I will keep sharing for support. I know before I was looking for anything that is positive on this med. Seems like the start up really sucks. I also been changing my food habits where I can. I looked up a few things that naturaly help with the anxiety. Along with the zanax when it acts up.
I started at 50 mgs on June 18th, talked to my dr about my roller-coaster emotions and she put me at 100mgs on july 13th. It's been rocky back and forth and anxiety been nasty. Seems like I am now able to focus more and not have racing thoughts, deep depression and panic attacks.
Hi could u please tell me food that you've been trying ?
Sure. I been drinking the green superfood drink by Otowalla it's a natural drink. It has kale in it that seems to help. Doesn't taste gross at all. It tastes like mangos and apple juice with a hint of banana. Also I found a natural jam that has chia seeds in it and have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with it ever morning. Been doing this for two weeks. I cut out all caffeine and my drink of choice is water. I can't think of what else I am doing but that is what I been doing for a while. I want to start eating more turkey too. It's supposed to help also.

Hi
Iv just started on sert today 50mg which I took this morning. I also take mirtazipine 45 mg which I have been taking for 4 weeks was on 30 mg for 5 weeks .
I wake up with my anxiety and it follows around all day. Last week was dreadful and ended up in A+E due to feeling suicidal ! Have been in a very dark hole and not been able to eat or sleep unless I take zoplicone.
Was absolutely terrified this morning of taking my first one probably due to the horrendous side effects from citalopram which they tried me on first.
Well I bit the bullet and took it and so far I feel fine, I even managed to go to the shop something I haven't done for ages and the intrusive thoughts seem to have lessened! Surely it can't work that fast ....
Should I be scared by what's to come ?
The bread has omega 3 in it also
Hang in there it's a rough road. Was for me bit getting better day by day
Well here we go day 2
Lets see if these side effects hit me with a bang, so far I just seem to be trembling
I know it's hard but try not to think about it and take it day by day the first 2 weeks are the hardest but hang In there
I shall try my best
I'm praying that this combo works !
Iv had anxiety every day for 5 months, it goes to bed with me and wakes me up every morning.....
My son is also on sertraline he's been on it for 8 months and it has worked wonders for him
How long did it take your son to feel better ?
I'm not sure
He is in hospital was sectioned and was diagnosed with schizophrenia and a personality disorder so was taking quite a cocktail of drugs . He was in a very bad place and very unwell but now he just takes sertraline and his depo and is looking to be discharged very soon
So seeing him getting better gives me hope that meds do work you just need to find the right one and the right dose
The first few weeks for me was ruff. Now I can sat I am so much better. I still get the shakes but in time they will go away. I talked to my dr when I started up a week into the I had to get the help from a very low dose of zanax to help. I even cut them down just to take a small amount and it helped with the issues. Calmed me down. Remember we are here to help and listen hope it works for you like it has me!!!
So far my side effects are feeling really tired and a bad head and can just feel the anxiety sort of bubbling away under the surface
My dose is being increased tomorrow so see what that does
How things going hope all is still good ?
