Hi I am absolutely terrified of SRI's as they give me panic whenever I start them so I can only get on them with the help of sleeping pills, benzos and a real low low low dose. Has any one ever started on as little as 12.5mg of Sertraline? Did you still get start up effects? My pshyc is trying to push me too fast so I am really worrying about it and am going to refuse to do it at his pace, this has to be at my own.
