Hiya
This is all part of anxiety/depression sadly, I have been the same in the past, worrying about my family dying and how I will cope. It is truly awful and everything gets blown out of proportion and watching any tv about hospitals and death is a definite no no! It might be that the Sertraline isn't right for you, how long have you been taking it? The good news is that you can get over this :) I have had many years free from anxiety on a different med, had a bit of a blip this year and have now changed meds to Sertraline. Still early days for me on this and not by any means 'back to normal' but I keep telling myself that 'I've done it before so I can do it again'...even if it is slower than I'd like! Try to keep your mind occupied if you can. How r u feeling today?
