Treatment and medication
1

Hi there,

​I need some advice about 50mg sertraline tablets for my anxiety. I've been on 50mg sertraline for 4 weeks now. They improved my sleeping patterns and sleeping better now, but I still have issues with my dizziness/anxiety. My anxiety still worse in the mornings, but by afternoon comes i feel better, what should i do with that issue? as i've not been day centre for 4 weeks now and still struggling even before that.

Stick with it susannah. I am on 100mg that I went straight on to 3 weeks ago after coming off for 6 months ( which turned out to be a bad idea) I relate with you about the morning time waking up anxious as I have been for the last few mornings. Sometimes these anxious spells take A few months to even out with the drug in your system I found the first time I went on it. I would see your doctor if the anxiety continues on after a few months as they may put you up to higher doses of setraline.

All my love x

I am moving up to 75 mg. My sleep also has improved but I still feel anxious in the mornings as well. I was going to talk to my doctor on Friday and see what he thinks. This is the first med that has given me hope so I want to stay on it.
