First timer - questions about sertraline?

[Paula]

Hi and welcome

I haven't used sertraline but plenty of members here have so will be able to let you know their experiences. Additionally, there's a section on the forum with information On this drug http://www.dealingwithdepression.co....eiw-Sertraline

Try not to worry too much about the list of side effects. Every medication has long lists, and most are unlikely to happen to you. However, everybody reacts differently to meds so, if sertraline doesn't suit you, there are a myriad of other drugs to try.

Finally, ADs can take up to 2 months to really begin to help, so it's not an overnight fix. All I can say is, talk to your family and friends and ask for support, be kind to yourself - if you need to rest, rest, and talking here will always help
