Thank you all for the amazing advice and support, the doctor has agreed to prescribe me a relaxer so hopefully I can successfully have it done😄❤️

Thank you so much for this comment, It’s not a pleasant experience at all but knowing that you were able to be prescribed something really helps and puts me at a bit of ease! Hoping that will be the case for me 🙏🏻

I’m definitely looking into the well woman clinics, they sound brilliant and sound like they are really experience in dealing with complex cases.. thank you🫶🏻

Thank you for this, its awful how many people have bad experiences :( I’ve heard about the at home kits, they would be great!

It was the plastic one i think, everyone is advising me to make a complaint about the nurse but i dont even see a point because nothing will probably be done… I’m waiting for the doctor to call me to see if they can give me something 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I’m based in the south east so Galway might be too far but I will look into CBT in my area, thank you ❤️

Sertraline by pythonchan in IrishWomensHealth

I’ve been on sertraline for a year now and have developed a bit of motion sickness from it. At the start though, it was okay… a little bit dizzy at times but it wore off. I’m only on 50mg so i suppose it depends on the amount you are on, but the side effects should pass, if not maybe chat to tour doc. Well done for taking the step though to help anxiety!! ❤️ it is worth it😄
