medication swap

[LilysMummy]

Hello, i went to my gp yesterday i have been on pericyazine for around a year, and it did help, i stopped taking it for about 2 months, then my anxiety came flooding back, chest pains ect, so yesterday the dr changed my medication to lustral/sertraline tablets 50mg, i havent taken any yet, just wondering how other people found these as i worry about side effects! thanks :)

Hi there
It may heighten a bit for two weeks but difficult to say as we suffer anxiety anyway. I been on it four months and not suffered any physical issues for ages.
I changed from citalopram and found this so much easier
