Hi,
I am in serious depression right now. Went to see a Doc 2 days ago and he prescribed Zoloft for me. Now I know it takes a few weeks to work but I am getting the usual side effects such as fatigue loss of appetite and libido. Basically I am a bit icky on Zoloft but it is manageable. I was actually thinking about stopping it but that's probably not a good idea. I need to get better.
Now can anyone tell me about how their experience with Zoloft went? How long did it take for you to feel better and does it help with anxiety too? Positive reviews for now only please.
Karl,
Hi and welcome. I see your a newbie here. Maybe I can give some advice. Zoloft for me took a little while to kick in at first. Don't get discouraged this happens with all medications. As fara s fatigue goes some people take it at night. I take mine in the morning. I ahve been taking Zoloft for 12 years and it helps with my anxiety. Just be patient is what I tell people and we are here to help. Talk to your doctor about side effects. I had a loss of appetite at first too. Some thingare temporary and it is best to talk to your doctor about all that you experience.
Pm if you need to talk
