Hi all
I have currently been on Sertraline for a year starting on 50mg increasing to 100mg. Sadly I've become quite unwell again mainly depression don't suffer with anxiety much at all. But could of been the sertraline stopping that. The Dr asked me to wean off the sertraline which I have done. Will be starting the Ven tomorrow 75mg I've never heard of this drug before. After looking on Google (big mistake!) I am a bit nervous to take it. It has awful reviews especially the withdrawal. The sertraline wasn't helping and I have put on 15kg which isn't good as I'm recovering from major spinal surgery. The Dr thinks this will be a better drug for me and says not many people gain weight. I can cope with side effects as have had to take lots of meds before and after surgery. Some of the opiates I took had awful side effects. So I have diazepam and Xanax if needed please share your experiences also which is a normal dose for this med thanks 😊
