I finally took a sertraline tablet this morning, I'd been putting it off as a side effect can be nausea/vomiting and one of the reasons I'm taking it is because I have intense anxiety about vomiting. But I can't keep worrying about it. I wanted to do it just through therapy and CBT but I have two young children and I feel like my time with them is passing me by and I'm missing out on things by worrying so much.
The CBT is brilliant and so helpful but it's in-between sessions that are hard to put the things into action and mentally it's so consuming I feel like I'm using all my energy to work on what I've been taught and trying to keep anxiety down.
