hello.
iv been on sertraline like 1 and a half months.
the first month i was having "attacks of happiness" that last a couple of hours, then
on a middle, then turn back to depression(but being a lot better that before).
from 25 to my actuall 150mg. (getting a really good feeling everytime i adjust my dose.. amazingly
after only a couple of hours of taking it).
when i turn the month+or-, "the attacks" past and i started to have all day a mutch better feeling.
a lot more like my old self.
(but steel im missing the attacks, cuz they where like supreme happiness hahaha:))))))

i notice something really cool..that now im enjoying the morning more that the night.
now when i get up i dont feel that pain, that even exceeds the therm of being sad or depressed...u know what i mean.
now its like the opposite..on the night im getting more down..not bad as bfore but still at least annoying.

the questions i through are:

have u been on a simmilar situation??
and what to expect after a month and a half? i mean the first month was a storm (on a good way). later some improvement but mutch more settle down.. so what to expect from now on??..i mean the med tends to reach a maximum after 1/2months then stocks?


THX!

Yep thats pretty much what I experienced. It settles down eventually and you'll feel even if that the right word. As the months passed though I became happier and happier. Eventually I was the happiest person I knew. Well apart from a friend of mine that was also on anti depressants. The I of course decided I was healthy and weaned myself off and devil1.gif back to the deep dark pit of depression only worse than before. I can still kick myself for doing it!!

Now I am on 3 diffirent ones and my happy days are slowly but surely returning biggrin.gif
Welcome to tha HAPPY CLUB!!

I'm glad that you are feeling better. I don't know how you will be as the med saturates more, but I felt "even". And I love it!
