I have never taken zoloft. But most of these types of drugs take 2 weeks to a month to fully work.

Best of luck! Just look out for any side effects etc. chances are if you have any they will be mild and subside, if not talk to your doc and you may need to switch!


Good luck

I have taken zoloft for a while now and it works wonders for me and I have no side effects. I really like it. I hope it works well for you.

Hi I was on 50mg of Zoloft for one month then went to 100mg. I thought I was doing well on 50 for the Dr thought I needed 100 Let me tell you the difference I and everyone around me felt. If I missed like 2 days of the meds then a friend from work would aske me why I didn't take my "happy" pills. I think they are great!

the only thing that zoloft did for me was make me sleep all the time... i guess i couldnt be depressed when i was asleep, but i didnt feel like it did anything for me. i did prozac after that and it worked much better for me.

give it a try and see if it works. do give it some time to try and work though

I was on Zoloft 2 yrs ago and even tho I was having to take FOUR Imodium AD at night so that I could "semi" function the next day - I felt as tho it was doing wonders for me! My doc did end up changing me to Lexapro (which I like too) But, I tell ya, if my stomach wouldn't go in fits - I would be taking Zoloft instead of Lexapro.

Best of luck to ya!

I'm currently on zoloft. It has made a great difference in my life. I feel like me again for the first time in a long time.
