Sertraline
"Hi all I've started this medication about six weeks ago after 9 years on Venlafaxine 75mg, the Venlafaxine had terrible side effects if you missed one tablet boy did it remind you. 

The first few days on Sirtraline seemed ok but then followed sickness and stomach pains and severe anxiety. I've just upped my dose to 100mg two days ago and feel like hell, racing thoughts, anxiety, on edge, just want to shut myself away but can't because of my job and kids, it's truly heartbreaking. 

My doctor doesn't know I've upped my dose I needed to act as could feel myself crashing. I've had CBT and that was great whilst you have the treatment but then all that support just stopps and your going it alone again. 

I just hope this will start working soon."
