Hi,
thanks for using health care magic.
I have gone through your available history.
You should not stop or reduce the dose of drugs on your own without consulting psychiatrist.
In many psychiatric illness, long term use of drugs is many times needed.
so you should consult psychiatrist before re-starting ant medicines. as you were better with sertraline, Doctor may restart the same drug again.
Meanwhile you cans tart doing stress management and relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and breathing exercise.
thanks
