I'm on 25mg. It seems to be a happy medium for me, and if I decide to stop taking it it should be a lot easier than if I was on 200mg....
I'm on a low dose of Zoloft. It seems to do the trick for me. I don't have the drive and motivation I used to, but I also don't have the depression and anxiety either. If I thought that a higher dose...
