i've been on sertraline (25mg) for a week now & have a dance recital coming up on june 6th. i've had really bad side effects including almost debilitating nausea. i finished my 25mg prescription & my doctor cleared me to just cut my 50mg pills in half so that i wouldn't have increased side effects from upping my dosage, but i'm beginning to think that i want to stop completely and resume after my dance recital so that i'll at least be able to dance in something that i've been preparing the whole year for.

i don't really think i have the time or energy to taper off, so would i be negatively affected by stopping completely without going down to 12.5, etc? again, it's only been a week and i definitely plan to speak to my doctor about it before i do anything, i just want input from people who've stopped/taken the medication themselves and info about how it felt

for context, i've been lurking on my fandom's tumblr tag for a few years now, but just started posting instead of just rbing/liking in november or so, so i'm not very aware of tumblr etiquette when it comes to creators.

i made a webweave for my ship to orbiter to noah kahan after not being active for a few days & logged on to post, and saw that a significantly larger creator had posted a webweave with the same ship to the same song and almost the exact same lyrics i had used, the only difference is the images & the character pov of the weave. would it be alright to post mine separately, or would i have to dm them / ask permission / reblog their work? i didn't take inspiration from it, just saw it coincidentally. thanks!!
