Hi, I am a Yorkshireman (uk) and have suffered for many years with Agoropobia, severe anxiety, and just lately depression. I have been dependant on Diazepam (Valium) since 1981, and my doctor has decided its time to lower the daily dose with the addition of 100 Mgs of Sertraline. After 1 month of taking i am experiencing nightmares, and more depressing i have found myself planning my own suicide, can anyone advise if sertraline does have these terrible side effects? Many thanks, if you wish to chat about your own similar conditions i am a good listener..Suffer with Type 2 Diabetes too!!!
