Sertraline
anxiety and stress
"Before I started this medication I couldn't get out bed. I couldn't look at people without feeling nervous and sick. I had intrusive thoughts that made me ill to the point I couldn't get out bed. I lost 3 stone and was in a dark place. I was put on this medication at 50mg for 2 weeks, the first week was okay, except I had the shakes, don't ask me why.
