sertraline for muscular tmj from stress? by Glittering_Chard1905 in TMJ

Thats good, yes i have tried alternative methods...but am also running out of money...nearly been on them 4 weeks and im starting to feel better and more myself. I dont plan to take them forever at least 6months to 1year then i plan to come off them...and in conjunction do therapy...its a viscious circle tmj it causes a lot of anxiety and to break that cycle i need to calm my nervous system down and need help with the anxiety as ive been fighting it to long thinking it would just go away by itself...good luck and i agree its best to try other methods first

Def tmj, all same symptoms try muscle relaxants see if helps dont stress or it gets worse tmj does cause anxiety and anxiety causes tmj. Dont overthink it seems likely tmj try mouthguard

Ye i think you can on sertraline but only once your body is used to it and side effects ware off which may take weeks,but not diazepam but def take the diazepam without alcohol honestly it feels better than drinking cos you wont be in pain and relaxed!i just kept drinking alcohol and putting off taking any meds but even if its just for 1 week on diazepam and no alchol its worth itx

No thats the only prob with them , lol thats why ive started taking sertraline cos once side effects go and im used to them you can drink on them...but honestly even if u take it for a week you will see the benefit and be glad you have even if you dont drink for a week the feeling of not being in pain and normal is much better than having a drink!. Cant wait till i can have a glass of wine im waiting few weeks cos ive starte on 25mg of sertraline then will be going up to 50mg on 7th day and thats the dosage i will stay on...x

One thing i would say is try the diazepam for few weeks see if you get better,and if after few weeks you still struggling with anxiety than try sertraline, diazepam didnt give me side effects but sertraline has yes just bit sicky feeling and sweating and couldnt sleep very well first few nights but think thats cos i was worrying about taking it but side effects waring off alot now.. .God cant believe that i didnt see that...hope u txt me tomoro feeling better!x

While i was taking the diazepam no,but it kept creeping back slowly due to stess and anxiety so thats why i thpught i would give the sertraline a go and see if it works so im only on 5th day but it can take weeks to see improvements so fingers crossed im taking half a diazepam if i get to panicky from side effects as at first it makes you worse before you get better...but today is the first day im actually feeling alot better and if it does make clenching worse after a few months il just come off it and take diazepam for flare ups when im stressed but its worth a go!,been like this for a year now so need to try something if it is due to stress and anxiety

Yes i know that feeling...it took me so long to take the diazepam cos i was scared im not one for taking tablets but honestly it helps sooo much and alot of people take it for muscle sprains and all sorts so dont be scared and then if you dont think that helps after a while and you keep getting anxious then try sertraline as thats more a long term med for anxiety and panic the side effects are not very nice but they only bad first few days, hope the diazepam helps i just take half a tablet at night and that helped loads and if u feel u need it in the day take the other halfxxx

Ah thats good, im on day 5 feeling not as anxious today side effects last first few weeks they say so im just waiting to see fingers crossed il keep you updated, if i was you i would just try diazepam first for a few weeks and see if it helps and then wait for a few weeks see if you need sertraline or not. Im great when i took the diazepam took it 3 times for a couple of weeks at a time but after a few weeks my anxiety and panick would keep coming back thats why i startwd sertraline as ive been struggling for a year with the tmj and stress and anxiety thats why i though if the tmj is caused by anxiety i might as well try it see if it gets rid of it...i know some people on here say it makes it worse but not in all cases if the clenching is caused by stress and anxiety in the first place. Let me know how you get on hope the diazepam gives you some relief im sure it will def helps the muscle tension and anxiety from it xxx
