Do you be scared of something at night?
Hi sertraline can cause this and it takes a while to go off it caused me to have sweats rapid heartbeat and acid indigestion I did stick with it and it definitely help some im off tablest now and just manage my symptoms myself some day are harder than others an occupied mind definitely helps though
Sertraline is noted for insomnia and disturbed sleep, it does wear off after a while, but it all depends if you can tolerate it, I was on it for two months, but had to also take a small dose of trazadone to help me sleep, as it wasn't doing anything for me, I had to change to trazadone only. I would go back and see your doctor, he may suggest beta blockers to slow the palpatations down, till the Sertraline kicks in properly. X
Thank you ,but I have been on Sertraline for over a year now ,I am trying to come off it now, and with the menopause it really does not help,
!!!!!!! don't no why men think they have it bad ,,,,,lol
Omg I though you must have just started it, but if you're coming off it, I think some of the withdrawal symptoms can be similar, I was only on it for 2 months and couldn't wait to get off it, only just took my last tablet last week, and starting on trazadone now, but it feels like I'm going two steps back, I know you have to give them time to settle in, just wish it was sooner rather than later. I'm peri menopausal as well and I don't think that helps, we women are made of strong stuff though lol x
