RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR ZOLOFT | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
2 | Severe Depression | I was nauseous all the time. | MY nauseous wold go away if I ate something for 15-30 minutes then it would be back. I couldn't handle it. I would feel it laying/sitting down and the second I stood up I felt like I was about to throw up everywhere. Although I never threw up, just the feeling was extremely troublesome and inconvenient. | F | 18 | 6 weeks 50 MG 1X day | 11/2/2012 | 3 | depression | Memory loss | F | 46 | 10 days 100mg | 10/28/2012 | 4 | Social and Generalized Anxiety | I notice I'm more easy to anger and get frustrated on this medicine. I've also been told by my parents I easily get angered since being on this, and I'm normally not like this. I also have increased tendency to want to pull out my hair. | It does help my anxiety and jumbled thoughts, but the anger and frustration I experience on this medicine makes it hard for my parents to be around me, and I don't like feeling angry a lot of the time, either. As I said, I normally am not an angry person at all. | F | 29 | 14 days 25 mg 1X day | 10/23/2012 | 5 | depression/OCD/anxiety | sweating in hot places, low libido | It's great drug. I was previously on paxil but it gave me a lot of sedation and I was tired during the day. Zoloft is great for OCD, anxiety and depression. | M | 27 | 4 weeks 150 mg 1X day | 10/6/2012 | 1 | anxiety depression | Oh my lawdy where do i start, I was angry Spice on this med...Wrote letters to people about how much i hated them, picked faults. Was totally not myself, become a horrible person on it..... mega behavior changes. SSRI meds yuk.... Much rather old Anti Depressent. I became very spiteful and wanted plot, destroy things. Totally Bizzare i stopped and so did the behavior. Run Forrest Run | M | 44 | 6 months 25 1X day | 10/6/2012 | 5 | GAD, Panic Disorder, OCD, MDD | Sweating and mild weight gain. | This medicine gave me my life back. That's just it. | M | 16 | 5 years 100 M.G 2X day | 9/24/2012 | 4 | Panic attacks, anxiety | I was restless the first few days but now I often feel nausea, and I have ALWAYS got a headache!! It's calmed my anxiety down but now I'm dealing with side affects. It also increased my bust size and I've gained some weight | F | 23 | 3 months 50mg | 9/23/2012 | 4 | Depression,Anxiety | This drug has worked well for me, the only side effect for me is yawning all the time. Has stoped my panic attacks and stablize my depression | M | 39 | 2 years 100MG 2X day | 9/16/2012 | 4 | Depression, anxiety | Post nasal drip, inability to orgasm (only early on when taking it), extreme drowsiness | F | 38 | 4 months 50 MG | 9/13/2012 | 1 | Depression | Fatigue, trouble breathing during exertion, extreme weight gain | I was put on Zoloft when I was 17 years old for depression. I started off at 100 MG and the first day was a nightmare. Getting up from my seat to do anything took extreme willpower because I felt like a complete zombie. I would also get out of breath doing the simplest things, like getting out of the car and standing up. I was 130 lbs. when I began taking it in my junior year, and by the time senior year came around I was 209 lbs. despite having the same activity level as before and not eating more frequently than I used to. I've had to live with a photo in the yearbook and graduation pictures depicting me looking like a blimp for the last ten years. It also never helped my depression. When I decided to stop taking it, I quit cold turkey and experienced some mild discomfort, but it went away within a few days. My weight dropped down to 160 lbs. without me changing anything in my exercise routine or eating habits, proving to me that it was the Zoloft that made me gain. So in the end, it never helped me and I had to be a blimp throughout my senior year of high school. I wouldn't take it again. | M | 27 | 1 years 100 MG 1X day | 9/13/2012 | 1 | anxiety | severe hot flashes, vomitting, headache, panic attacks, racing heart rate. I have never been that sick in my entire life. | I've read that this drug affects everyone differently and the affects are hard to predict. I know people with several anxiety issues that can live a normal life because of this drug, but I will never take it, or anything in this drug class, again. | F | 37 | 2 days 50 MG 1X day | 9/7/2012 | 5 | Depression | fatigue | Did wonders for sexlife. poo poo gets stiff again would recommend to anyone that is depressed. Thank you too much. | M | 55 | 15 years 100mg 1X day | 9/5/2012 | 2 | Depression | Initially headache, nausea & GI issues. Faded away after one month. Severe night sweats continued for whole duration of treatment...Zoloft is a very "sweaty" drug". | Initially started at 50mg/day...worked up to 300mg and then back down to 200mmg daily for about one year. This drug never really worked for me for an extended period of time. Yes there would be an improvement in mood when I increased the dose...but this would last for maybe 1-2 months at best and the depression symptoms would return. Trying Effexor now on advice of pDoc. | M | 36 | 2 years 200mg 1X day | 8/31/2012 | 5 | Asperger's Syndrome | none | Amazing difference in my son. No longer angry and moody. | M | 11 | 3 months 10mg 1X day | 8/24/2012 | 4 | Anxiety, Clinical Depression | Started w/ 50MG to build up to 100/day and during first week period experienced horrible side effects; tremors, nausea, etc. After that week, no side effects whatsoever. Only long term effect is that I can't cry - literally...not that I'd want to be cry often but it is a good stress relief and now, nothing. | Overall I'm glad I'm on it, have been for around 4-5 years now. I can tell I get less angry at things and sometimes less sad - the only complaint is not being able to express sadness. I'd still recommend at least giving it a shot. | M | 28 | 4 years 100MG 1X day | 8/13/2012 | 1 | panic attack, anxiety, depression | Wrestlesness, other thoughts of harm, only took once and will never take again. Was doing ok before taking pill and this set me back. | M | 25 | 1 days 25mg | 8/8/2012 | 3 | depression, social anxiety | Side effects only lasted for a week. Right now I don't have any. But the effectiveness seems to have disappead, too! | F | 22 | 3 months 50 mg | 7/24/2012 | 4 | Depression, PTSD | sweating, extreme if exercising; visual disturbances; nausea, weight gain, headaches | Having tried more than 4 other anti-depressants, this is the one I stuck with. Not the best one in my opinion (that'd be fluxoetine (sp) ), but I was simply sick of constantly changing Rxs. I exercise quite regularly and it would appear that Zoloft severly increased the level of sweat I'd produce. | M | 29 | 1 years 100 MG 1X day | 7/22/2012 | 5 | depression | dry mouth, sweating | F | 67 | 1 years 1X day | 7/10/2012 | 1 | post-partem depression | NONE | This anti-depressant did absolutely nothing for me. I mean, literally, nothing. No side effects, no results. I was severly depressed and breast-feeding my son so this was the only option I had at the time (it is considered safe for nursing babies). I struggled with the decision to take it because I was so worried that it may harm him because it does pass into breast milk in tiny amounts. Then I condidered not breastfeeding and taking an antidepressant. After much thought, I decided that the benefits of nursing outweighed the negligable risks of the meds. And, to not treat the depression would have been plain stupid. I was VERY depressed. Also, I was working full-time and pumping milk at work so that he could be exclusively fed breast milk for 4 months. Well, I may as well have not taken anything as it did not help at all. Now I take Cymbalta and that helps a lot more (I am no longer nursing, my son is 16 months). It's just weird how certain meds work for some people and not others. | F | 28 | 4 months 50 mg 1X day | 7/8/2012 |
