No !: Sertraline is not an "as needed" medication. It won't work unless you build up your blood levels over time.

ANXIETY: It is important to find correct medication from your Psychiatrist. Medication alone does not teach coping. Psychotherapy with a Clinical Psychologist can help you find ways to handle stress that will help your medications work better. If you are uncomfortable with your Psychiatrist you can obtain a second opinion from another Dr.
