Zosert 25 MG Tablet Health Feed

The dose of sertraline seems to be inadequate. You should take atleast 100 and if needed upto 200.

Sertraline is an ssri, it should be safe if your liver and kidney are healthy. Sertraline usual dose is around 50 mg. Usually antidepressants are taken long term as opposed to benzodiazepines that are short term. You should be fine, given you exercise daily, stay relaxed.

Dear Sajish Kumar all people used to have negative thoughts including psychologists and psychiatrists. It is not an illness to eat tablets.!

But need to check if you have any psychological disorder to be treated, either through psychological therapies or with medicines.

But psychological interventions are possible to deal with your negative thoughts with therapies like CBT.
Good that you recognise your negative thoughts which can be corrected.
Bye take care
