so i’ve been on 50mg of sertraline for 2 years now & im thinking of coming off them.

positives: anxiety has improved by A LOT. negatives: a lot of weight gain (10kg), increased binging, numbness (which was once a positive kinda lmao). i also don’t want to be reliant on them (nothing wrong with that ofc).

however i’m a bit scared of coming off them- what have ur experiences been coming off? did u lose the weight put on & how were withdrawal symptoms/ did u relapse? i used to be super emotional and cry a lot and now i feel emotionally constipated lol (good and bad thing- veering towards bad now)

i have an dr appointment soon to discuss tapering too
