I have been miserable lately. I have had some major stress for several months, and am on Zoloft 150mg and Ativan as needed.

I feel very emotional and sometimes cry for no reason.

I called my Psychiatrist today and told him about how I felt. First he said the Zoloft can cause it and wanted to cut my dose. After I told him that I was having OCD symptoms he said, maybe he should up it to 200mg, because OCD usually requires a stronger dose.

I asked him if it was from the Zoloft and I felt worse after increasing it, what should I do?
He said to cut it back.

I am just wanting relief from feeling like I do.
What do you think?

Hi, Maybe it's the drugs you're taking which make you feel worse. Do you know what possible side effects they might have?

Hi Jazzmynn,

I am always stress also, and I just want to share you what I did when stressful days comes.

When I am stressed what I do is that I just defuse a Lavender essential oil in my room...Then I just lay in bed and just smell the scent of the lavender...And it actually help me relax and calm...Or sometimes I took a hot bath with lavender oil in it...And it is really relaxing.

Hope this will help you....Take care Jazz and God Bless.
