I just started taking Zoloft and in less than a month I have dry, patchy rashes,
lower back pain (I had a kidney test thinking they were failing). Weirdly
enough, my sex life is better, but I do have constant headaches and still feel
anxious. I can not sleep (never have) and my doctor wants to just increase my
does. Yeah, OK. I don't think so. I am seeing a therapist and that is helping.
Once I have gone through that, I am going to try to wean off of this CRAP!
Zoloft story:
I was give a prescription for Zoloft a few years ago after my divorce and my
mother being diagnosed with cancer, I suffered depression due to the stress in
my life. I was give a prescription for 30 mg. I had began to develop extreme
mood swings, severe headaches and the same foggy feeling people are describing
it is very disturbing to me. I have a terrible time sleeping. I came off of the
medicine after a few months, it was given to help me get over the hump so to
speak. I fell into a deep depression over the past few years unable to get over
it so my doctor put me back on it at 50 mg I had no idea, now I am so furious
that the very thing given to me to help me has probably caused this major
depression and now I'm on it again. I work in the medical field and am
unfortunately aware of situations were meds are given without much thought or
explanation to the patient. This is very scary and now I hope to get help to get
off this medicine and get it out of my system.
