zoloft withdraw

Posted by chewy on October 20, 2003, at 20:59:17

Wow, I was taking 50mg of Zoloft for about 3 weeks and decided to stop. My pcp had me ease off with 25mg for a week, then stop completely. I have had morning head aches for that entire week and well into this one. I feel woozy most of the day and feel like I have the flu. That stuff hit me hard and I just want to be medication free for a while.

Has anyone had such and experience with Zoloft?

I don't want to be depressed, but both ads that I tried [Effexor and Zoloft] had very unpleasant side effects. Guess there is no free ride!

Yeah, preety much the same. BUT it caused a huge depression on withdrawal too, even though the drug did not alleviate my depression.

The Nardil withdrawal is not that bad at all. Actually there is not many symptoms for me at all- just another great thing about this great drug!
