    Zoloft/serttraline

    I, I started Zoloft or the generic name sertraline about 2 mo ago. At first I felt weird but after a month my body got used to it. I have been feeling a lot better.
    But then about a week ago, I started to feel really depressed again and sleeping way too much, feeling lost and hopeless. I dropped out of my math class at my college and have had a lot of trouble falling asleep at night, so I started taking melatonin to help me sleep.
    Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Zoloft helps me with my depression pretty well, or so I thought, but my anxiety has mostly stayed the same. I've had trouble with anxiety all my life. Should I try to switch med, or tough it out? I guess I should make a dr appt

    I would reccomend speaking with your doc, it sounds like maybe a different med would be better, I too had issues with being really tired after being on zoloft for about a month.

    I had really good luck with pristiq, but your doctor will make you another reccomebdation, sometimes it takes a few tries to get the right one.
    Every lasting scar shows us what it's taken to be who we are.
