I also feel like this. It’s hideous but good to know I’m not alone.I started 50mg of sertraline a week ago for post natal depression. I’m also having counselling.
I had a couple of days where I was just sweating like a pig. So embarrassing. Constantly wiping my forehead.
But today I just feel so emotionless. Like numb. My toddler is bringing me books to do etc and I’m just sat on the sofa staring at the tv feeling so flat.
It’s not a nice feeling and Google tells me it can be a side effect.
The brain fog is pissing me off too. I’m just struggling to get through the day making decisions like what shall I have for dinner tonight? Simple decisions like that.
Anyone else been like this? Does it pass?
I just have no motivation to do anything.
my boy is 2 years old and very needy atm so when he sees mummy sitting staring into space he gets frustrated and tries dragging me off the sofa I can’t snap out of it, it’s annoying me now.
I’m sweating buckets one minute, freezing cold the next, that’s also winding me up.
I don’t know if I’m gonna keep up the sertraline tbh its been 3 weeks now and I genuinely feel worse everyone keeps saying stick at it, it gets better but I’m just feeling fed up of the side effects now!
I recommend giving yourself some me time, if you can do that with little one. Even if it’s just a walk around a shop in the evening, a bath, listen to some music, do what makes you happy for an hour or two. I find that really helps me to come round to reality, have time to process how I feel.
