peter117 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Hello I was started on sertraline 50mg six weeks ago and after 3 weeks GP increased dose to 100mg. Had bad side effects, trembling hands, shakes, eye pain etc, GP said back to 50mg but side effects ok but getting more depressed. Also strange with OCD, its as though I just don't care about my thoughts any more as though I have reached the limit of what I can worry about thinking. A Link to comment
PolarBear Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 It's not helpful to know stories from others about how they reacted to meds. Everyone reacts differently. Some experience side effects, others don't. Generally, side effects tend to lessen as you continue to take the pills. Link to comment

Then time to engage with CBT.CBT is the acknowledged way to learn how to deal with obsessions and compulsions. Link to comment
