If the zoloft isn't helping and making you feel worse you can stop taking it even if the doctor advises against it, they should at least guide you in quitting safely though...I mean sure its good to follow treatment plan but in the end it's your body/mind not theirs and if you know its detrimental than you have to do what you need to do. I guess I get sick of the notion people should just do as directed regardless of what it is doing to them.
I thought pdoc was the abbreviation for psychiatrist, at least in the psychotherapy forum it is. Yes, it's a psychiatrist I'm seeing! What's your def. of pdoc, just curious? He acts like the jitteriness is my anxiety, but it's NOT. I see him next week and I'll try to get more definitive answers, but it does seem like he wants me to take something else for my "anxiety". I DO have anxiety also, the normal kind, LOL, but I don't know which is worse. This jittery feeling is more physical; my anxiety is emotional.
