Sertraline, is this normal

Ive been on 100mg of this for 3 weeks now. Every muscle is hurting in my back, neck and shoulders. It's really painful. I can feel when I tense up but always try and relax as soon as I notice it happening. Anyone else suffering??

Hi cookiepatch,I too am on Sertraline,but only on 75mg at the moment & I have pains across middle of back & shoulders. Not sure if its the Sertraline or just the anxiety it can give you all sorts of pains.

Good luck

Thanks lancia,

I know I get really tense at times but I try to relax. I'm in bloody agony today, feel like I'm in my 90s. Taken pain relief, tried the deep heat. Nothing is helping. Bloody anxiety lol xxx if it's not crippling you one way, it's another. Hope you feel better soon xxxx

I take 150 mg of sertraline a day. I don't get muscle pain but I do get muscle tensing. Not sure if thats caused by the medication or anxiety.
