Hi Bubbly,

Glad you are feeling better. I took sertraline a few years ago for a while and it changed my life at that time too. It's good to hear from people who are feeling better and it'll give reassurance and hope to others. Welcome and thank you!
Myra :hugs:

thank you myra, for your words of encouragement. i thought i was the only one, but now i know i certainly am not. yeh, life is good at moment, fingers crossed. i do feel scared about coming off sertraline though, this is the second time ive been on it, (8 months now), i was on it about 5 years ago for two years. the cpn wants me to have cbt? any advice ?

Hi, nice to meet you. I just got put on sertraline on Friday so it's nice to read some positive things about people's experiences of it. I'm glad you're feeling generally better. I have asked the doctor to refer me to CBT, but never had it myself, so I can't comment. As for coming off the sertraline, if you're scared to come off it then it's probably better to continue.

hi again, thanx for your reply. it takes a while for sertraline to work, so hope u feelin ok. its helped me loads, but like i said before, i am a bit scared, when i do come off. thanx for the advice, i will stay on it for now, and try not to worry about the eventual coming off. im going to this group therapy workshop at the minute. it's been abig help too. Being able to meet other people and talk, not in depth, but about our shared problems is good, and the people there are really nice too. take care! what u on 50, or 100. fifty for me did nothing, but 100, suits me well.:)
