I recently finally decided to start taking Zoloft, after a long period of convincing myself and a really traumatic event (to me) happening. I am a little overweight and I was worried at first about weight gain after reading it was a common side effect, but I have experienced significant weight loss. (14 pounds in two weeks so far, but I'm not really worried because as I said, I am slightly overweight and I have never been able to lose my little extra as hard as I've tried.) Can anyone tell m

i was on zoloft back in 2010 and it worked well for my ocd and dipression on 100 mg. i was on it for about 6 months. then i had to stop cold turkey because my health insurance got cancelled and i couldnt afford the pills. i got my health insurance back and was put back on zoloft. its been 4 months and still nothing. 2 weeks ago my dose was uped from 100 to 150. and still nothing just more side effects. is it possible that since i stop zoloft cold turkey its not going to work the same anymore.

ok so about 2 months ago i started smoking weed every day. I smoked it once every night up until two weeks ago. my night goes ilke this, smoke weed (zero all hits so my parents don't find out) i smoke a fucking ton, then masturbate. i would do this every night but just recently i do this 3 times a day (without the jerking off) i smoke before school, after school, then before i get out of bed. but today i have no weed and I'm so fucking desperate that I'm going to scrape resin smoke that and

I've been treated for major depressive disorder since 2002. I've been through a load of therapists, most uncaring losers in it for the money. Started with Wellbutrin was switched to Zoloft in 2003. Put on Cymbalta in 2008. I was worse a week ago than I was 10 years ago (sound familiar?) when I stopped, cold turkey. I reamed out my shrink for some of the crap I was put through. I reamed his boss out too. The week before Christmas I was under severe stress as a commuter bus driver. I actually ha

my tonsils are infected so they put me on clarithromycin (spelled wrong) well i am also on zoloft too and they failed to put that in the computer so i've been getting terrible anxiety and panic, i called the doctors and they told me you are not supposed to take the two of them together so they took me off the antibiotic and switched me to a different one. i'm still really shaky and sweaty and my heart is palpitating, i only took two doses of the clarithromycin before they took me off. how long

I just started on Zoloft yesterday and I am having heart palpatations and anxiety. Is this normal at first? If so, how long does it typically last?

I once took a lexapro tablet (before my anxiety/panic attacks were existent) and i felt really weird, it was only a 20mg tablet but i was spaced out and paranoid the whole day. I even had to come home from work. My doc has prescribed me 50mg zoloft to take daily.. I am 157cms tall and 58 kgs and female. Is this a high dosage? Today is my first day taking it and I would like to know what to expect. Its annoying feeling anxious about something that should be helping my anxiety!!

I have wanted to join the military since i was in 10th grade. I did JROTC all 4 years of high school, and did 1 year of ROTC at college, earning a 3 year scholarship which i turned down for personal reasons. I am just so tired of college and want to join the army now, but i have something that stands in the way of my dream. I have been on zoloft (anti-depressant) since feb. 2011. I fell into a depression in 2010 after a falling out with friends, and i became suicidal. I started taking this med

I had my first big anxiety attack on Friday night. On Sunday morning I had a minor one, and on Monday night I had a slightly larger one. This morning I woke up with a heavy head. It wasn't a headache, just a heavy feeling. I went to the doctor and told him what was going on. He prescribed some Zoloft and Valium. I was going to my boyfriend's house and didn't want to take any medication before driving. On the way to his house, I had to drive through an area where rock cliffs are on eithe

Lets face it, antidepressants suck for pretty much most people. Finding the right med involves going on and off various meds, this is an unpleasant process. I took an antidepressants for years and they did absolutely nothing. The only thing that happened was that I got withdrawl effects from them when I stopped taking them, so i had to taper off them. Ive never had any withdrawl from weed besides maybe a decrease in appetite and some slight anxiety (though not one tenth of what i felt fro

I've been down a lot lately and my sister takes this. I don't plan on taking it everyday, I really just want to see if its safe for me to take once since I am with child.

Ill start from the beginning. I have a leaky valve that needs to be fixed. My surgery is next Tuesday. I start using pain killers recreationally around 2002. It started with a few perks and vikes than OC 20s eventually up to OC 40 mg. This went on for about 3-4 years than i had to quit. I did it cold turkey. wasn't that bad but than again i wasn't taking nearly as much as my friends. It just felt like the flew. I also know most of it is in your head. I started back up on them slowly, then got

i realized for the last two days I've accidently been taking both the 50 ml of celexa which i was taken off of for complications thinking it was a different med i am on and my 50 ml of zoloft that i am currently prescribed. this is not a joke very serious. i am not afraid of over dose but serotonin syndrome. not sure if it is a problem or if i should go to the hospital. please help

ok so i guess from being over stressed i have depression and anxiety (so says the doctor) it makes me feel weird and forget what im doing and disrupts normal life, it makes me fear irrational things and makes me feel like im going crazy im starting to worry that im gunna do something stupid because people keep talking about it, well my doctor said to try an anti depressant but ive tried prozac and buspar before,, both killed me on side effects,, prozac even made me have this weird feeling that

and my zoloft and some weed...how will I feel? I know Im a mother 88888 idiot so you dont have to tell me.

Im anxious 24/7 for no reason, around people that i cant enjoy life or even talk to people. I feel lonely, the anxiety and depression is to much to handle. Been on many medications: paxil, zoloft, ativan, prozac, welbutrin, seroquel, pristiq, buspar, clomipramine. None worked for me.

Started taking 50mgs about 5 months ago for anxiety/ocd/eating disorder. While it helped me oveercome my eating disorder, it brought back my ocd/anxiety full force- and I feel completely awful and not myself. Since I have been taking it for such a long time, I know that these symptoms are not due to the drug still getting in my system. I stopped taking it cold turkey (i know its bad) because I was so frustrated, and I noticed my symtpoms alleviated, but I had brain zaps from withdraw. I fee

Im 19, and started taking Zoloft for OCD/anxiety. I originally started taking it for an eating disorder, and it actually helped with that and made me feel reallly good for awhile-but hen did a 360 and made my OCD/anxiety about 10x worse. I have been suffering from OCD/anxiety for a very long time-but learned to overcome my irrational fears. Even when I had my eating disorder and was not medicated, I managed my anxiety and ocd tremendously well (besides the issue with food). But once taking

Mentally and physical wise. This might sound dumb, but hear me out. I've been smoking at least a bowl a day within the last couple months. When I smoke I feel great for the first 4 or so hours but then I get dizzy, can't pay attention, my heart feels like it's racing, and I just feel really down. This goes on until the next time I smoke. Note: Just recently I've stop taking my zoloft because it was doing more harm than good. (If this may have something to do with my problem)

I started taking Zoloft a week ago. My doctor prescribed me to take it at night. I also take Ambien so I am able to fall asleep at night. During the day around 2pm I get hit with feeling tired and i feel like that the rest of the day. If I switched to take it during the day would I feel as drowsy?

I feel like comitting suicide. Im 19 years old these feelings hurt me 24/7. Ive tried: prozac, zoloft, ativan, pristiq, buspar, seroquel, paxil, clomipramine amd welbutrin. None of them worked and i tried them in different combos. I give up on life. I need help Dont care about jesus, i h8 this feeling!!!!!

Okay I am so many things for different reasons.

I have been hospitalized before in California but now I am worse. I wont commit suicide but the idea is almost always on my mind. I do cut myself and haven't been diagnosed bipolar yet but my psychiatrist said that I may be bipolar. I am 16 years old. I miss a lot of school, just because I can't find reasons to go to school or to just get out of bed. I just want to sleep all day. I have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and its worsening, day by day. I just don't know what to do. I'v

I have been doing this long before I met him. I have been with him for 2 years now. I had stopped when I started dating him but started up again recently. I had been pretty good at hiding it but he happened to see it last night. He grabbed my arm and was like, "What is this?" I said, "Idk." And then he just rolled over and bed and refused to talk to me the rest of the night. What do I do? He knows I suffer from eating disorders, depression, ptsd, anxiety. I am on 100mg of Zoloft for it and st

Ive had it my whole life, worse these past 3 years. I sought help couple years ago. I tried: paxil, zoloft, ativan, welbutrin, seroquel, pristiq, buspar, clomipramine. None helped me or made me feel worse. Im on prozac right now, been on it for 20 days, still feel the same. Im starting to give up on medications, but my anxiety and depression is so severe, i cant function. I feel like dying to end all of this.

I was put on abilify a week and a half ago, and ever since then my mood has gone way up. That's great and all, but t the same time, my urges to cut and burn have sky rocketed and they can't be tamed, even with cutting more than I ever have before. Also, I've been experiencing thoughts that I would be better off dead --- something that never happened before. Does this make sense? Is it just me? Should I be taken off it? Help!! Also, I take Zoloft 150mg, Vyvance 40mg, and Imodium twice a day i

I have GAD. And this all started when I started taking my Zoloft again. My psychiatrists suggested that I decrease the dose from 125 to 50 so I did but that didn't help so he then suggested to stop the medicine all together . So I did. I still have it. I went to an ent and he said he honestly didn't know what was causing this. Every time i open my mouth I can hear cracking. It's really annoying. Im scared. What could be causing this? I have braces so I didn't know could my braces have cau

I've been having extreme mood swings where I become VERY irritable and mad. Even tv seems to get on my nerves. Its so extreme that I just want to rip someones head off! Every little thing pisses me off and sends me over the edge. I'm currently on Zoloft for depression and that normally helps with irritability. But lately it hasn't been. I've never experienced anything like this before. Has anyone else felt this? And how can it be treated?

I began treatment in the summer of 2010. Since then ive been on these meds: paxil, zoloft, ativan, prozac, welbutrin, seroquel, pristiq and buspar and i am yet to feel any relief. I did try clomipramine but it made me worse. I believe i have had the worst 2 psychiatrists in history. One kept me on zoloft for 6 months even when i told him it wasnt working and the one go to know is of no help either. The reason i dont change them is because i will have to waste my time and go to the doctor and w

Hi I'm a 17 year old who is having major mental stability issues. Mildly traumatic things have happens to me not too often over the last few that include disappointed family failing school and the rejection of the girl that ive liked for a long time.

I was on zoloft for my constant anxiety attacks a few years ago. my medical ran out so for the past 2 years i have been off of it. Recently my doctor told me i have a goiter and would like me to get an ultra sound. My anxiety has cleared up alot, but the feelings of unrealness and depression are still here.

I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety yesturday, and was prescribed to take zoloft. I just got the meds. today and will start taking it tomorrow. Just curious, Like I know that everyone gets nervous, it's inevitable for that to never happen, but for example, sometimes when talking to people or trying to put myself out there I get anxious or sometimes jittery for so reason which leads me to start talking fast. My anxiety sometimes makes it really hard for me to be myself. Will I not be nerv

So I'm nineteen, & I've had suicidal thoughts on & off since I was fifteen. I've been to four different psych-wards in the past two years for contemplating suicide. I've been on prozac, zoloft, buspar, geodon, paxil, & wellbutrin; nothing I take works. I've had two different psychiatrists diagnose me with Asperger's Syndrome. Most people think I'm a good kid, but that I also have a dark side about me. For example; I don't drink, do drugs or even have premarital sex, but I have a really bad att

Does anyone have experience losing weight gained from taking medication? I am still at a healthy weight despite the weight gain but my clothes mostly don't fit. I've been taking the medication for a year and have gained 5kgs (originally weighed 50 kgs, now I weigh 55kgs). Dieting and exercise is not working, the weight just keeps going up regardless. I have never had a problem with my weight before other than when I was taking Zoloft years ago. In that case I stopped taking it, and the weight

When I was little, I didn't have the best father. He was emotionally and physically abusive. He hit me till I was 16. Even in grade school, all the guys and girls would make fun of me for being Egyptian, and they taunted me for not being allowed to date. I'm Muslim. They called me a lesbian and a terrorist. Ever since I was little, I would obsess about certain things. I would be afraid that I would become a lesbian. I was afraid if I would throw up or die, and no one would help me. Since las

Ok so I dont cut myself, instead I like brand myself. Example: I just heated up a knife a stuck it on my chest.
