| 5 | depression, anxiety and insomnia | Delayed ejaculation, moderate libido loss | This drug has helped tremendously with the anxiety and has had a pretty good effect on the depression(no major lows). It has also partially corrected my insomnia. After a few years on it however, it's effects have waned somewhat. I have at times taken more, but 50mg is where i get the best balance of effects, too much and my sleep is affected and my libido goes down and ejaculation is delayed. But it has been the best antidepressant I have taken and least side effects. It has kept me relatively balanced for 5 yrs. | M | 32 | 5 years 50 1X D | 10/6/2011 | |

| 5 | depression, anxiety and insomnia | Very few side effects. Some vivid dreams at first and some difficulty achieving orgasm. | Update: After being on 50mg for 8 years, I realized that over the last year or so I drifted back into depression. Went to doc. Upped the dosage to 150mg and I feel wonderful. Anxiety, panic and depression and general apathy is gone. I avoided talking to people and didn't want to leave the house. This happened so slowly and gradually I didn't even notice. Now that I'm back to normal, thanks to zoloft I can see how bad I was. It has literally given me my life back. Give these meds time to work. Start slowly and give them time. | M | 35 | 8 years 150mg 1X D | 8/19/2014 | |
