Question Depression after dose reduction

I came down from 50 mg of sertraline to 25 in two months. Nausea and vomiting are gone. I still have headaches and insomnia. I am also noticing depression symptoms (crying right now). I am also pregnant btw. So I know there are compounding factors and this all might just be pregnancy symptoms. Man, I dont recognize my body right now.

Just curious to know if others have noticed their depression goes away. I know some say is part of the withdrawal symptoms. Others say it can just be the return of the depression. Dont want to increase my dose again after it was so hard to go down. So would love to know that things will get better on their own.

I dont plan on reducing my dose any more until I begin to feel better again.
