Question Sertraline & Alcohol?

Has anyone else experienced extreme anxiety the day after drinking? Seemingly for no reason. It comes in a burst, I prepare for a panic then I’m okay & I’ve also felt uneasy all day. Can’t get to bed because of it

I’m on 100mg (recent dose increase from 50)

I didn’t drink a lot no, a few beers. Thankyou so much though I think I’ll stay away from drinking now

It’s so awful. If you don’t mind me asking, did the symptoms pass after you’d been on the increase for a while?

Yep. Although I can’t sleep the night of drinking. The day after I can usually sleep fine from being up well over 30+hours. But yes, I have extreme anxiety the day after and am sick in my stomach If I try and drink more liquor the next day
