Surely this isn't right?

I've been on Certraline now for almost five weeks for Anxiety and mild OCD. I'm aware you get worse before you get better but this is crippling me.

My OCD was only ever mild and it's worse now and my anxiety... I struggle to leave the house now.

Last week I was raised from 50mgs to 100mgs and I almost want to stop taking them.

It's usually around the same time of day it gets super bad as well. The evening and first thing on a morning.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so what did you do?

Certraline, same as sertraline, few people on here Sarah who have started taking and concerned they are feeling bad while waiting for them to kick in and start working. Hope you get some replies off people on same meds. I do know lot of these meds take time to work, if you don't see results soon I would have a word with your doc. Can take this long , but docs know best about meds, glad you asked for advice here in meantime, just a bit of reasurance will put your mind at rest❤️

Thank you so much
