Hi Folks
Has been just over 2 weeks since I dropped from 200mg a day to 150mg a day. Have had dizzy spells etc but over last 3 days, dizziness and feeling 'strange' in terms of feeling out if touch. ..foggy head. ..been quite bad. Does it take about 2 weeks for the change in tablets too kick in oes anyone know?

My withdrawal symptoms were terrible I was very dazed in a world of my own life passing me by an I was on slow go if u get me I had a constant headache was very angry terrified to leave my house my stomach felt like I had been kicked in it but I had gone from 200mg to nothing all in the space of 3 weeks came of them to fast I looked up how long u r supposed to take an it's around 6 months as I was on them for 5 years
Hi Elsie
Thank you for your response...that does sound quite intense to come off them cold turkey. I remember in the past I did that and it was hell...even my teeth were sore! How r you doing now, have you gone back on sertraline?
No the Dr put me on citalopram I have to start on 10mg then work up to 40mg I was on sertraline for 5 years I was 36 weeks pregnant with my youngest child when I went on them she was 5 Saturday so just on 5 years I hated coming off them so fast I suffered so bad in future I do it my own way
Did they put you on sertraline whilst pregnant? Oh my goodness! Glad you are off them now and hope the new tablet works well x
