Mine (not Sertraline) suit me well in that they stop me crying uncontrollably. They aren't easy to reduce or stop but they allow me to function. I had to increase my meds by 50% when I was bereaved and messed about by DWP so I'm unlikely to ever manage without them.
Whether my meds be should be changed for the ASD diagnosis is something I've put off exploring.
In DWP terms, PTSD is a "common" (mild) mental health condition. We know it isn't mild but fluctuating and mine is still unmanageable under stress.

Has she actually said that @Catherine21 I'd not seen that anywhere.
Though I did see another MP from a different party saying anxiety was a neurodivergent condition, but autism was a mental health condition. I'm very glad that person isn't in charge. 😆

Thank you very much Catherine
Please take care
i would like to add please that im glad that i stood up for myself and didn’t continue taking sertraline , it was prescribed to me for the first time and i reported that i felt very bad and couldn’t take it , after some time it was prescribed to me again and once again magical sertaline , after taking it i had an allergic reaction like never before in my life and such pain in my veins and enlarged veins and other symptoms that i thought i was going to die , my body has always reacted very badly to ssri drugs, when i was attending job centre coach work was asking me about medication , i was really scared that they will accuse me of not wanting to take medication even if the medication has a very bad effect on me and it wasn’t the coach who had to deal with the effects of this drug and not being able to get up to go to the bathroom, but me .., In Krakow a ward has been set up to admit patients with a very serious withdrawal symptoms and side effects after stopping antidepressant , i would like to emphasise that these are my experiences , kind regards

I'm another person who relies on afternoon powernaps. Just a quick 30 mins in a dark room really can make all the difference to the rest of the day. Like rebooting a computer.

I get burnt out being around people it's like thier sucking the life out of me when I get to burnout point I get very snappy horrid to say I don't get joy from people I feel more unhappy all events like getting married was horrendous for me having a baby because body dismorphia didn't want to be seen for years used to be a people pleaser and you attract enough users had one friend she was always asking for help with kids house you name it I used to do it when I came home I had to stay in bed for days then I'd be hard on myself feeling useless it's so hard isn't it somedays worse than others I totally understand what your both saying sometimes I mourn the life I wanted in a way not to be rich Just to be happy
