This page is scaring me off my Sertralin… advice please

I’m (F22) on day 4 of a 50mg dose of Sertralin because I’ve been really depressed for a few months. I thought I’d do some research because my doctor gave me no info, and this Reddit page has me thinking I might just stop taking them now and try to deal with myself in a more natural way…

I just assumed I’d go on them for 3-6 months and then just stop, but now I’m reading all this stuff about withdrawal and permanent side effects and it’s making me question whether it’s worth seeing if they even work at all.

Any advice?
