I am on day 26 of SERTRALINE and i feel no better if not worse . i feel totally detached from myself. still have major anxiety and barley sleep. The only thing that may of got better is my appetite . PLEASE HELP
What dosage are you on?
started out on 25 12 days on 50
when you increase you start the clock again. so you are technically on day 12 of 50mg. it’s way too early to expect a positive change so early in. the first couple of weeks are gonna be worse. stick with it
While I am not trying to discourage you from taking sertraline because I know it is extremely helpful for most people, myself included, I have had that severely detached feeling from an antidepressant! I tried celexa last November and took for almost 9 months at a starting 10mg to 20mg and never lost that detatched feeling, while the panic attacks ended up going, I still felt so numb and detatched that it was not worth the small benefit that it provided. I have been off of it for a total of almost 3 weeks now and I can say that feeling is almost completely gone now so I can only assume that it was caused by the celexa. In the past when I had taken sertraline that never happened. Not every antidepressant is for everyone. Might need a change. I would stick with it just a little longer but if that detatched symptom doesn’t seem to go I would speak to your physician about possibly switching. Either way, don’t get discouraged if one didn’t work for you, you will find the right one and relief will come. 
So your not taking anything now
I am going back on Sertraline, I wanted to give myself a little while to clear my system.
