Hello tracerobbo

Thank you for your message and welcome to this group.

It sounds as if you are struggling with this? How long ago were these changes made? It can take a few weeks to adjust to a new medication. The patient information leaflet with sertraline may be useful for more information. If you are taking other medications it might be helpful to talk with your pharmacist.

It is probably worth seeing you doctor again to explain what is happening and to ask why the change was needed.

Our members are very supportive so may have some advice for you.

The topics and pinned posts might be helpful for information about medications.

Let us know how you get on

Best wishes
