From new memeber 1000 Strawberry:
We'll I want to thank everybody for there honest posts now I want to share my situation and hopefully I get feedback to help me thru this soon to come challenging times....we'll I have been on Zoloft for about 7 years straight even thru a pregnancy because I was so scared of how I would feel off of it. I have went thru some rough times 7 years ago and Zoloft definitely helped me and my husband work thru this so me coming off Zoloft is a little scary for me and my husband. I am 37 yrs. old with 4 children, been married 16 years and I feel my husband and I are at a wonderful time in our marriage except my daily struggles of always being tired and that's all I want to do is sleep. He has so much energy and me definitely not, not to say all the weight that I have gained brings me down even more. I keep going to my doctor telling them something is wrong I am so tired. They do blood tests and find nothing wrong. I take multivitamins, eat healthy and workout-still nothing. I was working out like a crazy maniac but it was so hard for me to loose the weight and I was hoping especially for the energy but it never came. I then injured my shoulder and haven't worked out for 1 1/2 months and I have gained about 7 lbs. back...what the heck...I normally feel fine on the Zoloft mentally and have realized that I will be on it the rest of my life due to the fact that it runs in the family and I do not want to be a crazy old lady that can't get along with anyone because I do not want to be on medicine to help myself..however I can not handle the few other issues I think are side effects from Zoloft but the dr. Doesn't even mention that.....my weight and my energy levels....I really hope this is the issue. We'll my journey will begin and we will c how it goes...I have done lots of online reading to see if there is a natural alternative without side effects...the one product I read about was deprex. Has anyone tried this? I really hope going off Zoloft helps me with energy, I feel like I sleep my life away...any feedback would be helpful
