"i was having suicidal thoughts really bad before taking sertraline.  i also used to run off from my friend  at macy&#039;s while shopping with her and one minute i would be standing next to her and next minute i was gone and i kept running off from my mom and my friend tina and i confessed  to my mom that i have a problem and that i need to do something about it and my mom took me to the doctor and i told my doctor i think i am depressed and he put me on sertraline 25 mg once a day and i found out i was depressed and had severe major depression. things are a lot better now since i&#039;ve been on sertraline for a long time."
