So here I am again! Last August I was prescribed lustral sertraline an was too afraid to take it..
My anxiety is worse than ever, agaraphobia worse than ever, an never felt so depressed before. So, the doctor had just again prescribed me lustral again an thinks I really should consider taking it. My counsellor said to me I really should be on medication as well. So I'm guessing this has to be the way forward..
I'm terrified of it. I have panic attacks after taking paracetamol and have never taken this sort of medication before. I'm ABSOLUTLEY petrified of the side effects and heightened anxiety it can cause. Literally am shaking thinking about it.
I really need some positive stories to inspire me to take it. Iv spent months trawling the Internet reading enough horror stories about this medication.
Also- has anyone got any advice on how to take them? What dosage to start on what time etc.
I'm really trying hard to start these meds once an for all.
