Withdrawal?

Hi been on sertraline about four months decided along with doctor to come off as getting a lot of side effects! My original problem was visual issues, eyes feeling strange and things seemed distorted constantly. Doctor put it down to anxiety, now tablets are coming out of my system feel like absolute hell and my eyes are worse than ever! Have had eye tests, blood tests balance tests done but no answers. Been under a lot of stress as my sister has had cancer but now through the other side. How long do the withdrawal symptoms last? This has gone on since January.

Hi L1974

The worst is the comedown and the fact youve had all the worrys for your sister its took a toll on you maybe coming off them through this tough time may of made your reduction sightly harder.

Hope you feel better soon
