I think I am in a mixed state for the first time in my life and feel like absolute hell. I thought depression was bad, but now I am still depressed but filled with crazy energy and agitation that I need to relieve and hear a little voice within me that says self harm is the only way to relieve all that tension.
I wanted to ride it out since I've heard that sertraline can feel like that in the first few days and because I've got an appointment with a bipolar specialist (at a teaching hospital lol, great tip!) on Tuesday anyway, but now I am feeling worse than ever and just want to stop taking the sertraline

Welcome to PC!
For some reason I stopped getting updates to this thread[emoji36]. But my appointment was Monday before this past one and we started on gabapentin and im titrating up every week. I'm still having issues waking up though. The grogginess from meds make me a complete *****. Like, don't even talk to me unless I've had two energy drinks! Other than that I'm doing really good on the gaba. I've been asking for this med for awhile now and it's working for my anxiety too. I've been needing my PRN less!
