HI
I have posted on here quite a few times ! i increased my meds after years on 50mg of sertraline to 100mg about a month ago, had a severe reaction, couldnt cope at all with the side effects it gave me, So reduced straight back down to 50mg on doctors instructions about a week half ago, gradually things are getting better, out doing things, coping more, mornings fingers crossed getting easeir, depression lifting, but i still have these odd feelings, which i dont really understand what they are, this may sound mad, and believe me it has crossed my mind many times, its like i am nervous of myself, dont feel like i am here, the world is seperate from me, i understand it could be derealization/ depersonalization, but why do i feel nervous of myself? like not at ease or comfortable and sometimes when i think of myself and my feelings i get the hot flush of fear? I know what happend with the increase really traumatised me, i had feelings and thoughts that just are not me at all, felt totally out of control of myself, has it stemmed from this? will it ease as time goes on? i used to have fear about doing anything, now i can do things without the fear, not paralaysed by it, but its just this underlying uneasiness with myself and my mind. Told you it would sound mad lol ! x
