Thanks canonguy! Unfortunately I now how full blown d* :( my boyfriend doesn't believe me so I'm having to deal with it on my own. If I was at home I could have some comfort from my mum or something....

Hi everyone! Trying not to let the anxiety get the better of me while I'm on holiday but it's not working and I could really do with some support please!

So I live in England and I've come on...

I was started on 50mg but I was so scared I took 25mg to start with and worked up to 50 :)

I took a 50mg the first day I was prescribed (on an empty stomach) and it made me feel awful, didn't v*...

Sorry to hear that you're struggling there-still-hope, I'm having the same sort of problem at the moment as I'm finding it difficult to go into university.

Like you said it's 100% in your head...

It's always reassuring to know someone is in the same boat as you :)

Aw that's good at least they are aware! They're there to help in whatever way possible at the end of the day! Mine are great!...

Well this sums up my life! Everything you've said in this post I can relate to, I think we may be twins itsamyyeah haha!

Have you spoken to anyone at uni like tutors or anything? Mine are fully...

Honestly I think it's normal to still be feeling the effects of coming off them so I wouldn't worry! It's just a horrible feeling :/ I'm still feeling the dizziness and general 'fuzziness' but it...

I'm sorry to hear that medication causes you bad side effects cause I've been so lost without mine and I was beginning to feel better before I had run out, now I'm back to square 1 :/ ah right, to be...

I'm exactly the same! I've been full of cold for the last 2 weeks and I've even been googling to see what the chances of me v*ing with it are! I think everyone with emet does it haha! I had a rough...

We'll that's good, you can focus on relaxing and getting yourself better! Aw bless you, I've been the same not being able to do much because of it so I'm hoping it goes away soon!

Googling stuff...

Also, although you're not on Sertraline anymore, this forum might help you out! I always post when I have doubts about how the medication is making me feel and I'm sure a lot of people on there will...

I wouldn't freak out, although it seems like a horrible feeling, it'll just be your body getting used to not having the medication in your system. I'm freaking out about how my body will react when I...

Yes yes and yes! Me (being the idiot that I am) forgot to get a repeat perscription on my Sertraline and had to wait until the bank holiday was over. I e-mailed the doctor's and they still haven't...

It'll be the working out! I'm a dancer and I find if I do a lesson without keeping myself hydrated I tend to sometimes feel n* but then I have a drink/rest and it goes away. Also my boyfriend does a...

I work with kids but I find it so difficult at times, especially during the winter months! As for 'facing my fears' my bosses are aware of my emet and will let me leave if a kid ever v*'s in the...

Yes totally! It seems like it never stops going around! I work in a school/with kids but it's difficult for me because of my emet as kids are notorious for getting sick!

Just think of it...

I am the same! If I know that somebody has been s* through something that's not contagious like alcohol or whatever then I'm fine! Anything I know is or might be contagious and I totally freak out! ...

This post is so inspiring and reassuring, thank you! I can relate to so many feelings you've written about and I am waiting to hear back from the therapist I have been referred to so I can start my...

These are the 3rd lot of medication I have been given for it. The 1st (nitrofurantoin) made me feel very ill and had an upset stomach so I immediately stopped taking so I think I've got it into my...

Hi, so I'm new to this and not really sure what I'm doing so bear with me haha! I didn't even know this phobia had a name let alone a society! It makes me feel very reassured to know that there are...
