What should I do??

[jb2112]

I've been taking 100mg of sertraline for just over 4 weeks for anxiety/depression. They seem to have helped the depression slightly but the anxiety is the same. Should I keep taking them, increase the dose to 150 or reduce it, or try something else?

Thanks

prob an increase but you need to talk to the doc, are you having side effects as well, if not then an increase would be bearable

My doc told me I had to give meds at least 6 months for the full improvement!

Long time I know.

Maybe they aren't working for you - Prozac never worked for me.

The natural remedies such as Vitamin B complex and rescue remedy helped but longer term it was diet, exercise and then the CBT sessions I had.
