Finding it hard to get any info specifically to people with autism on antidepressant meds.

Hello everybody :) 

I have been taking sertraline 50mg for the past 38 days, initially I felt awful and it has taken a little time to feel improvement but I can safely say I am starting to feel much more like me again as time goes by, the only issue is.. the dose as I have read up online that people with autism, metabolise medications differently and typically require lower doses.

Has anybody here had a good experience and have you found that lower doses have suited you okay? :) 

I have read a few of temple grandin's book's and she seems to think the same thing too about doses.

I have had to reach out here, as my DR seems to plead ignorant unfortunately :( every time that I suggest my diagnosis and just treats me as the next person.
