Finally, I remembered my sister telling me that her daughter's neurologist had told her that these types of meds have anxiety as a side-effect. I googled it, and sure enough, it was listed as a side-effect. I went off it as it had also triggered a receding hairline, and within a few days, the anxiety and tears were gone. I wouldn't be at all surprised if you aren't experiencing something similar.
Thank you I am going to look into this and see if anxiety is a side effect of zoloft or abilify. Do you think that the anger could just be anxiety?
