Sertraline Any One?

[Squaddiedave]

The docs just started me on sertraline, 50 mg p/day for a week, then upto 100mg. Found the info leaflet usual doom and gloom,anyone been/is on it? "failed ejaculation" and "penile dysfunction" in the same paragraph is a bit strange............

Setraline is the generic version of Zoloft. I've been on it for about a month and have very few side effects. It works pretty good but my dosage level will have to go up also. For the first week or so I felt like a stoned out zombie...it was great! It appears my brain was starved for seratonin, which is what Zoloft does...increases the seratonin in your brain. Anyway, I know there is a lot of weird stuff in the warnings and all, but I've been good to go so far. I am hoping when my doc bumps me to 100mg/day that it starts working better. She had already told me that I would need the increase, maybe even more. Oh, and it takes weeks for the stuff to really work. You will have some initial effects but it takes time for it to really build up in your system.

Thanks buddy!

Mate, I was on 200 mg a day for a few years. No complaints, although I thought it became ineffective in the end.
If you manage to feel like sex, it does have one advantage in that you end up lasting as long as a porn star. ;)

Got to just say, the squirts? Really! P*ssed out my a*se this morning! Wow!

 

[CAFTT0607]

Oh, yeah, it will mess with your stomach and produce some nasty effects for the first few weeks...at least it did for me :(

 

[Squaddiedave]

It wasn't a worried fart, it was a "oh f*ck " fart lol! TWICE. Gonna stick with it though. Day sack to work with wet wipes and spare boxers lol

Dave cocker. :poop:

At least you know you are getting it from the new meds.

I have taken that much shit for so long, my bowls no longer know if they are coming or going. If I have a solid crap once every 2 weeks I am doing good.

So wet wipes are SOP`s around my house and work :ROFLMAO:

But watch for Splash Back. Nothing worse than a wet arse covered in the squirts.

 

[Squaddiedave]

Yeah, squirty splash back wouldn't be good lol.

Seem to be waking up with bad shakes since taking them, I mean, worse then a sh*tting dog shake, bizarre. Makes the morning squirt more interesting anyway lol

 

[Squaddiedave]

Gonna stop taking these, am back with the Doc Friday, they can poke them. Stomach cramps, sickness, scared to fart, and lower then a low thing. The shakes are horrendous in the mornings, got to the point Im having to get up at stupid o'clock to get them under control enough to drive to work, appetite has gone to shit as well. Was better off with out them!!

I was on it for a few weeks it felt like little gnomes were in my head pulling the optic nerves back trying to suck in my eyeballs... and if I lay down it felt like I was falling backwards... only continuosly until I would have to jerk up because of the sick reverse vertigo thing.. not gonna go there again believe me...

Wellbutrin with Effexor works for me... one of the listed uses of wellbutrin is for treatment of erectile dysfunction. if you dont have a wife or a steady not for you believe me lololol its like low strength viagra according to the literature...
