I started taking zoloft late last year and holy itโ€™s been such a life saver! I did have really bad stomach-related side effects for 3-4 months but have since sorted that out with diet and eating schedule. Kind of annoying but super worth it for me! Good luck ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–

I was in a similar boat as you when I first went on SSRIs (Zoloft) back in 2014. Even after seeing a psychiatrist per my therapistโ€™s recc, it took me about 2 weeks *after* I was prescribed to finally decide to take them. Whether it was placebo or real, I noticed it helped me self-regulate better and feel like I could make therapeutic progress and incremental changes without being totally overwhelmed constantly / breaking down emotionally. Ive since been off and on for Multi-year stretches depending on my needs and circumstance and Iโ€˜d recommend it to anyone. I was lucky and the only side affect I had on 50-100 mg of Zoloft was slightly reduced appetite. Itโ€™s worth a try! And you can always taper off if you donโ€™t like it :)

- lexapro: first one ever, made me feel very flat and actually more depressed - wellbutrin: made me manic and possibly activated my bipolar disorder - prozac: sweaty and agitated - zoloft: sweaty and agitated - lithium: sleepy - seroquel: sleepy - buspar: didnโ€™t work - lamotrigine: horrific - abilify: combined with zoloft + caffeine it felt like I took molly or ecstasy this was actually fun for me personally the best antidepressant was realizing I was using drugs and alcohol to cope, stopped smoking weed all the time, find a good match for a therapist, ate healthier, got a job that was fulfilling, get off social media, exercise, find a supportive partner (itโ€™s all easier said than done but this truly does help)
