Anyone else had this happen to them? I started out with anxiety issues and was put of a hefty dosage of Zoloft. When three years had passed and I lost basically all emotion, I opted to quit the med. At first things went well. I even felt good about feeling bad and vulnerable, because I had feelings.

After a while, I slipped into depression that went pretty deep. It didn't only come with the feeling of being tortured in hell and totally tired all the time, I also couldn't think or reason. I couldn't even add single digits.

Struggling without SSRI's for three years I caved and went on another one and partially came back. So now I have to be on meds for life for a depression I didn't have before meds.

Tell me if I sound whiny for thinking this is really unfair? What is worse, every doc claims this is just a coincidence, and my depression had nothing to do with the med. I wish I could be told someone is sorry they ruined my life.
