    Sertraline - Encouragment!

    Hello. I just want to write a few words of encouragement to anyone starting on Sertraline. I started on 5mg back in March after struggling with HA for years but being reluctant to take any medication. It took a couple of months until it started to work and I was close to giving up a few times. It took about 4 months until I started to feel really good, and 6 months for the side effect of diarrhoea to stop. I know medication isn't for everyone but I feel great now - the best I have felt for years and am so glad I stuck with it. Life is too precious to struggle if you don't have to.

    So why didn't you go back onto sertraline if it was working?

    How are you guys making out? I just increased the Sertraline to 150MG from 125 and 'so far so good' I figured ... screw it with the sexual side-effects.

    Why?? mitrazapine?? Taken during the day is hell. That being said: I hope you're having better luck than I did on that one.
