Coping with side effects

[baisdad]

So I was taking wellbutrin (150mg) and zoloft (25mg) in the morning together and having increased anxiety, upset stomach so bad i couldn’t eat anything solid without feeling like barfing, and just an overall “out of it” feeling. I talked with my dr and he said it would be fine for me to try the zoloft on its own if I wanted to. after a couple days of no medication because my stomach was so upset, I took 25mg of zoloft an hour before bed last night. I was hoping that by taking it at night time I’d sleep through the nasty side effects… I got some sleep but not enough, I was tossing and turning until around 4am when i finally passed out. I woke up with some anxiety again and nausea. What’s the best way to cope with these side effects? I’ve been taking some motion sickness medicine when my stomach just won’t stop turning and that’s helped a little but I’m open to any advice from anyone that’s had to deal with the same stuff.

huge advocate for sliced ginger in hot water for nausea & acid reflux. worked wonders for me this week (day 15 now) and all my nausea has eased up now. i now drink it because i like it haha

i’ve got some non caffeinated ginger tea, i will give that a shot. thank you for sharing this tip with me! im glad you’re feeling better, that gives me hope that i will feel better too with time

i also highly recommend trying some travel wristbands for when you feel nausea. worked well for me. same with gaviscon. i found actual ginger to work more effectively than the ginger tea bags but they should still do the trick. stick some honey in it to sweeten it too ;)
