HI
well i have posted on here quite a bit, increased setraline 50mg to 100mg three weeks ago, due reoccurance of Anxiety, well since the increase i have been to hell and back (can i just state, everyone is different on anti ds, this is just my personnal experience and doesnt mean it will effect anyone else, i am very sensitive to anti d ) i went from yes feeling down, and tearful and anxious but fighting through it some days better than others to thinking iam going mad, absolutely convinced even went to emergency docs expecting to be section, (he didnt by the way just sent me off with beta blockers and told me to reduce dose back to 50 mg and get some counselling) i was sooooo very very frightened, to the point i felt suicidal ( i would never ever leave my babies) waking up with black depression that i have never experience before which then sent me into panic which would last for hours, had to have someone with every min of the day, because could even bear myself. Well i reduced back down on saturday night, only got throught the weekend with diazapam. Today i went to doc she said to carry on this week with the 50mg sertraline, have two days free, then start on 10mg cit whichi have never been on. She also confirmed it was my reaction to sertraline increase and not me! thanks god. Now i am a lot calmer today from yesterday for which i am enternally grateful for. But the rawness of what i have been through is still with me, it brings tears to my eyes. I have everything to live for my life isnt bad, why do i have depressing feelings? i am struggling throughout the day with these desperate feelings, you know where u can physically feel them , how do people cope with these? i dont want them to get to the point they were at the weekend, also will the terror of what happend ever leave me, i am as the stage where i cannot bear myself, and want to run away from myself (never had thse feelings before either so they scare me as well) i dont feel comfortable with myself, the thought of myself sends shivers of panic, is this because what i have been through. I just want me back, can i just add i was on 50mg sertraline for 5 years and it was very good and i had no problems, as i dont want to put people off
take care lynne x
