I am on week 4 of 100 mgs of sertraline and feel so low.I was on 50mg for 13 weeks but this had no effect although my previous experiences 50mg has worked really well after 12 weeks.
I feel so frightened that I won’t improve and this Forum is a place where I know people understand.Please if anyone has advice positive experiences I’d be so grateful.Thank you so much.
I certainly understand. It's an awful thing you're going through. I think you're doing the right thing by keeping going though. I'm on my second time taking Sert and it does seem to be taking longer to work. I'm noticing improvements - at around week 12 - but by no means there yet. Just understand you're not alone and believe that eventually you will return to your normal self.
Thank you for taking the time to reply - this is so hard and I really appreciate your advice
It took eight weeks for me to start to feel at all better. Nine weeks and I felt much better. Two years in I am basically fine with very rare bad days. Keep going, sometimes it's a couple of weeks, I'm told usually five or more.
same here, it worked much quicker for me the first time. second tine around and omg it was horrible, but worth it in the end.
