RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR ZOLOFT | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
3 | depression | sexual dysfunction, night sweats to point of changing underwear, pjs and sometimes sheets in the middle of the night | F | 32 | | 5/28/2001 | 2 | depression | I had horrible side effects. Couldn't sit still, paced the house for hours on end, couldn't concentrate, had violent angry thoughts mixed with feelings of being absolutely terrified. After I stopped taking the drug, it took a few weeks before I recovered to the point at I been at before the drug. | My doctor gave me this drug because it works wonderfully for a family member. I guess that is no indication of how it would affect me. | F | 27 | 6 days | 5/27/2001 | 2 | major depression, anxiety | significant decrease in sex drive & satisfaction, dry mouth, minor sleeping difficulties, slight feeling of indifference (numbness) - this last symptom, however, might have been the result of the depression and not the medication | didn't help very much, although i took a low mg dose in relation to my size and only took it for about 2 months. however, i have spoken to two other people (one a family member) who take it and claim it helps them a great deal | M | 25 | 2 months | 5/26/2001 | 4 | severe depression | At first I had super dry mouth and wanted to sleep forever. That went away and then I had terrible problems reaching orgasm. After 6 weeks or so my sex drive vanished completely. My depression was gone until after about 5 months then the Zoloft just stopped working. I found if I took a year off the Zoloft, it would work again later so that's what I do. | I have tried almost all classes of anti depressants and so far this works the best. I get all aspects of my life back together; career, social, family, spiritual. My love life suffers due to the lack of sex but it lets me focus on other areas. I have been on and off Zoloft for 5 years and found that staying at a dose of 25mg each morning is the best. Increasing the dose only increased the side effects. Zoloft let me still feel sad or angry at times, it didn't make me a complacent, happy person. It helpped me to feel the appropriate feelings for a situation instead of the all consuming feelings of doom and self loathing. Without antidepressants I am sure I would have kiled myself by now. No matter what the side effects are it's worth it to get me back on my feet and let me feel good for a change. | F | 38 | 5 years | 5/24/2001 | 3 | depression/ anxiety | weight gain, nasal congestion and sinus pain. | F | 24 | 1 years | 5/22/2001 | 5 | depression/ms | definetly lowered my sex drive . | i feel really good and my moods are under control and i plan on taking it as long as it works. i also have ms and fatique along with it and this does seem to help that to. | F | 37 | 3 years | 5/19/2001 | 4 | Depression | It relieved my depression 100% but left me with severe tiredness. | It worked from the first day I took it. I still take it but want to go off because I am extremaly tired from the medecine. I have tried to stop taking it, but the depression starts to come back. I feel very frustrated. | M | 31 | 8 months | 5/19/2001 | 3 | Dysthemia | Yawning, sexual disfunction | M | 40 | 30 days | 5/11/2001 | 5 | severe depression | lower sex drive | Zoloft has completely stabilized my moods. Without it I'm a mess, in fact people around me know if I've run out or skipped any doses! After being on the drug for so long I do feel like I'm getting a little bit immune to it though, I've recently had a few mood/emotional disturbances. However I am very thankful for what Zoloft has done for me and would definately recommend it to anyone suffering from depression to at least try. | F | 20 | 6 years | 5/10/2001 | 3 | chronic depression | euphoria in the beginning which subsided after a few weeks. Sleeplessness- still suffering from. Big time loss of sex drive. Weight loss- which I was happy with | F | 26 | 4 months | 4/30/2001 | 2 | post partum depression | No sex drive whatsoever. Considerable weight gain. Pill gave me severe heartburn at night and anxiety during the day. Felt guilty and withdrawn. | This was the second drug I was put on. Found that it worked better than the others but the increased side effects were one HUGE price to pay for some sanity. | F | 28 | 6 months | 4/29/2001 | 5 | depression | Absolutely NO sex drive!!! | I became sort of immune to it after about 2 years. | F | 27 | 2 years | 4/17/2001 | 1 | depression | no sex drive, had trouble sleeping at night. | This drug did nothing for my drepression. | F | 39 | 2 months | 4/16/2001 | 4 | chronic depression | sleepiness, weight gain, sexual dysfunction | It worked wonderful the first three years I used it. But I have cycles of depression now in my 5th to 6th year. | F | 30 | 6 years | 4/5/2001 | 4 | depression | head aches mild | M | 37 | 2 years | 4/5/2001 | 4 | depression/anxiety | I got this incredible appetite. I never felt full and food always sounded good. I gained 10 pounds while on this drug for 9 months. I did, however, have a huge decrease in my anxiety and felt really good and positive about life in general. | F | 24 | 9 months | 3/28/2001 | 4 | Depression | pro-longed ejaculation, nasuea, insomnia | M | 18 | 3 months | 3/27/2001 | 3 | PPD | Complete loss of sex drive, stomach cramps and lack of concentration. | F | 28 | 1 years | 3/27/2001 | 5 | post partum depression | weight gain | was a life saver. i had no immediate side effects, only weight gain, but it was worth it. really helped me to be a better new mother. i would take this again if i had another post partum depression. | F | 30 | 1 years | 3/21/2001 | 3 | Depression/OCD/Panic Disorder | Sex life completely gone. Frustrated, irritable, keeps you awake, some days are better than others with it. I feel like it only works half the time. | compared to others i have taken, serzone, celexa, buspar,etc, this drug is ok. Seems to work better on some days. | F | 24 | 3 months | 3/19/2001 |
