Has Sertraline helped you with Social Anxiety

[rainrainrain.]

-did/could it help you unafraid to talk more??

[Denise]

I've never taken Sertraline but a few others and I found they had caused other emotional problems for me so I just try to stay away from drugs altogether. I have to be responsible and not like try things out for fun.

I have
-Chronic Depression
-Self-Injury disorder (cutting)
-Anxiety disorder
-Perfectionism
-suicidal tendencies
-phobias, including social situations, phones
-some sleep irregularity

Is that similar to the example you gave?

I have taken Sertraline for a month or two.

Sertraline didn't do much help for me. No noticeable improvement.
If not help, worse.
In fact I overdosed it (like 20-30 pills) trying to kill myself and got sent to the Emergency Room and Intensive Care with drug overdose.

btw overdose symptoms include irregular heartbeat, tremors, dry mouth, dizziness, nausea, abnormal blood pressure and breathing problems. May cause unconciousness and death.

Switched drugs because it's dangerous to use it after such an overdose. Welbutrin doesn't have noticeable effects either. Perhaps I need a stronger drug.
