I take 50mg of Sertraline and 1 0.25 Xanax. My old primary had me take only Xanax and I never had any problems. My new primary wants me just on sertraline. I have never been diagonosed with depression. I do have some anxiety and once in a great while a panicky feeling. I prefer the Xanax and want to be weaned off the sertraline. With the sertraline I don t sleep well and I have very bizarre and disturbing dreams. What do you suggest before I meet with my doctor.
Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I think you have been diagnosed with anxiety disorder and not severe depression. Sertraline is an antidepressant used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder and anxiety. Xanax (alprazolam) is a benzodiazepine medication used to treat anxiety and panic disorders. You should not worry about the medications, but the ER has mainly prescribed for anxiety and panic attacks and secondary as for depressive episodes, which could happen due to anxiety. Therefore, you need not worry. You may talk to your ER about this and work with him. You should also try psychotherapy techniques and meditation to overcome and manage your anxiety disorders. Consult a psychologist. If you require more of my help in this aspect, please use this URL. http
