Is it Zoloft?

I don't personally have experience with it but a friend of mine is on that & Ativan & loves it.

Im on zoloft as well .50mg, a lil under a week. I feel off on and on, i guess no real attacks just persistent symptoms and very lil sleep. Im taking trazodone for that but didnt work too good last nite. Ur not alone in this and reading everyones comments is reassuring and helps to be strong. Hang in there pal

I completely understand. my negative thought is sometimes i feel no one understands and that itll never leave me but those are irrational thoughts and my nervous system is exaggerating.

Hi there, I am on 100mg of Sertraline It made me feel much worse for about 10 days. After that I felt so much better it works really well for me.

Is that about the average amount of days it takes to kick in? Im on 50mg, today will b 6th day. Im just tired of these annoying symptoms, head rush, a lil dizzy, stomach churning, hot flashes, moments of highs and then low. Just wanna yell at it sometimes to f*** off. A nice restful night would b nice too
