I can understand not liking how they make you feel. Some of them are horrific and Sertraline put me off medication for a few years. But if I had gone back to my GP sooner and just told them all this it would have saved a lot of stress and hassle in the long run instead of trying to deal with things by myself, but I was really scared by Sertraline so I understand it.

I'm going to speak about a medication review soon. The anxiety is still there and in stressful situations I'm dissociating still and I don't know if that's something I will just have to live with or whether medication can help that. I'd rather not go down the benzo route tbh.

I dunno. I'd keep trying, Ki.
