Sertraline Side Effects - Need Advice

started sertraline about three weeks ago and I'm not sure how I feel about it side effects are all over the place. first week was emotional blunting ,zero appetite, nightmares, difficulty paying attention,could not sleep to save my life. now on week three I'm eating way more than usual, sleeping way more than normal. I guess I'm asking if you guys had this too and when they evened out and when /if you knew it was working/needed uped/ not working for you guys

You got this! And if it’s not working for you or you are worried about these side effects, talk to your doctor about it 💕

I had similar symptoms, first week or two was nausea, diarrhea, not sleeping, feeling very restless, and feeling flushed/hot. Then I had the feeling hungry all the time phase for a few weeks. It took a couple of months for me to notice a change in my overall mood

I just remembered a side effect when I started taking Zoloft years ago (my words were a mess) I was more forget and I would actually forget simple words but thank God that went away. It was so noticable my co-workers would laugh and tell me to get off if it but I have tried everything and Zoloft was the best for me. But when I started I too thought I would loose my mind.
