Hi everyone, hope you're all okay this evening. My day has been reasonable. I feel a bit slowed down.
Has anyone here had success with SSRIs? Sertraline in particular. I was on Citalopram for several months (30mg), and didn't think it was doing much good, but when I came off it I had a massive crash in mood. Psychiatrist says that means it was doing something, so I probably am responsive to SSRIs. But I couldn't keep going even in the place I was with Cit.
Now on 100mg of Sertraline and feeling about the same as I was on 30mg of Cit. If it's helped a bit, does that mean it should keep getting better as the dosage is raised? Psych said that the maximum dosage is 200mg.
I feel kind of scared that I'm going to be left in the place that Citalopram and Sertraline have me in - i.e. vaguely functional - able to keep clean, feed myself and work a little - but nothing above that. I hope that isn't what they do.
