Yes I am on 50mg of Zoloft and I have muscle twitches....
Anxiety attacks stink sooo bad!! The awesome thing for her though is that she got through it and now if another one comes on she will know more about how to fight through it and can look back and...
First time I was switching from another medication so there wasn't really a waiting period. But I got off of it for about 6 months before going back on it. It took about 12 weeks total. There was a...
Her story sounds all to familiar. I had my first panic attack at 12. My family doctor gave my dad some sort of strong allergy medicine to give me when I had an attack. It always made me relax and...
Starting Zoloft can cause all of those side effects. I found them easier to deal with if I took Xanex. It took the edge off of the jitters and uneasy feeling. Zoloft is a fabulous drug and will help...
The normal beginning dose is 25mg. I don't doubt that you had terrible side effects from 50mg. I take this drug and it has helped me quite a bit. I do understand if you want to take the natural route...
I have been on and off Zloft for awhie now. I would not suggest drinking while on A/D medication, but I personally do drink from time to time. At most 3 beers. Anything more and I feel terribly...
Glad you talked to you GP about this. Wish you the best with your new medicine! Report back on if you like it after a while....
If you have been on for 6 weeks with no relief at all I would make an appt with your doc and ask to switch meds or up dose. No need to suffer. Life is too short!...
Student24- From what I understand serotonin mainly resides in your stomach so it only makes sense that your stomach would feel upset when you first begin Zoloft. It should subside in a week or so. Be...
I have never had any weight loss or gain issues nor indigestion with Zoloft. Pretty much side effect free for me. I just increased my dose 3 days ago so only time will tell if it helps. I am sure it...
bullbull- You and I have the same story almost to a T. I was on 50 mg for 5 years. Went off for 6 months. Back on now for 12 weeks or so. My doc upped my dose to 75Mg. I also take Xanex as needed....
Very very normal to have stomach issues. They will subside very soon- my experience it was about a week....
I get all of these symptoms when I am having high anxiety. This is always worse if my blood sugar is low. Anxiety can be a vicious cycle. You do not feel like eating because you are so anxious, then...
I am 26 and took Zoloft 50 mg for about 5 years. Tapered off and was off of it for about 6 months. Went back on it 12 weeks ago. I started with 25 mg for 4 weeks, 50 mg for 8 weeks and just recently...
I personally do not like to travel either. It really makes me uneasy but I always keep a few Xanax in my bra - which I hardly ever have to take- but it eases my mind knowing I have them handy if I do...
A little back story-- I started taking Paxil (can not remember the dose) for about 3 weeks, I didn't see any improvement and felt worse. Doctor changed me to Paxil CR, which I LOVED and worked great...
