Hi all went to the docs today for my 8 week review and im upping my Sert to 100mg only wanted to go to 75mg eeeek feeling slightly nervous about this but il give it a bash 👍

Hi Sue,

Do you continue to have anxiety is that why you’re going up?

When I saw my GP last week she suggested 75mg then 100mg too.  

I’m one week on 75 and do still have some residual anxiety but want to give it longer before upping.

Let us know how you do.  Xo

Hi Sue,

I upped to 75mg 5 days ago and so far side effects have been minimal, nothing like at the start so hopefully you will be ok too 😊..

Good luck ❤ xxxx

Hi Sue. I upped from 50 to 100 last week. Had a few days of some side effects but for the most part they've subsided a week later. Hope it helps

Hi Sue,

How are you doing on 100mgs?

I’m at 12 days of 75mg but anxiety isn’t settling so I think i’ll Increase today to 100mg.

I’m now at 7 weeks in total with gradual increases- 8 if including the 25mg start.

Hope to hear how you’re doing xx

Tammy
