Need some success stories

Hi all. Please delete if this isn't allowed; I'm just looking for other people's experiences with sertraline/Zoloft.

I started Sertraline 7 weeks ago, and it's been such an up-and-down road for me that it's really hard to focus on the positive changes I've experienced over the weeks. Some backstory, I've never needed meds or therapy in the past, been relatively "normal" for the majority of my life, until in April I had a health issue that caused me to develop an anxiety disorder and Major OCD. I've been in therapy ever since and, like I said, Sertrealine (50mg) for 7 weeks.

The first week or so was ***, shivering, night sweats, heightened anxiety, sleeping to escape, low mood, the lot. Then I felt things started to balance a bit during weeks 4-6. I felt I had happier days, I wasn't constantly feeling tightness in my chest or ruminating as much, I wasn't 100% but it was better.

Now, for the past week, I've been waking up with intense burning pressure anxiety in my chest again, I've been feeling incredibly low, scanning myself constantly to see if I can still "feel" emotions, as I'm terrified of it making me Numb. I don't always feel present during certain points, I feel like I'm faking happiness because the anxiety is constantly there.

I have a review tomorrow, I know it can take 8-12 weeks for some people, especially me being on a lower dose. I just want to know if anyone else experienced this and it got better? Thanks
