I am on 25mg of Sertaline for my panic disorder and health anxiety ( I know it’s a small dose and I’ve been told by doctors that it’s not even a therapeutic dose ) I feel like medication just effects me more strongly but it actually did stop my panic attacks and now I feel ready to stop taking them because i know this sounds bad but I just I want to drink and be in the sun again . I have severe health anxiety and have been prescribed 50mg to take but have only took 25 because of how the pills made me feel when starting. I felt like I had every single bad side effect starting this medication and honestly just wanted to stop it . I’m too scared to go cold turkey because of the brain zaps. I had one brain zap since the meds and hated it but want to be off the meds . Anyone on my dose know how long they will last for ? Or any other side effects to look out for to prepare myself so I can tell myself I’m not dying 😭 hope this makes sense pls any advice would be appreciated !
