Has anyone been put on sertraline for anxiety? If so, how long did it take to start working? I've been on it for a week and 5 days. I know it's not going to work that fast but I do feel better than last week. Other than I feel really dizzy today. Any advice or stories?
I took Zoloft for a long time. I have to say my overall experience has been bad, and think I should have gone with a different one. To get on it I'd be zonked, so tired, for like a month before the negative effects would lessen. I went up to 200mg. And although it made me manic and happy eventually- it also had a agitation aspect to it like I was very often trying to get rid of. But now that I've quit and trying others I feel less zombififed I think. Ssris all make me tired though.
I was first put on sertaline (25 mg) six years ago. I would say the first couple weeks took some time to get adjusted to. I remember feeling dizzy quite often and trouble sleeping. After this time period I began to feel like myself again. Hope this helps!
Thank you both for the replies! Tomorrow will be two eeeks I've been on it and I feel it has giving me more energy so far! I'm waiting and sticking it out to see the full effects! Hopefully sooner than later they will come!
