Wellll....if you were drinking while on the Zoloft, you can't really assess what was going on. Zoloft can be a weird AD, but it can also be immensely helpful. Do you know how much (dose) your doc wants to start you on?

I doubt you will find many people who have experienced psychosis with Zoloft or any of the AD's for that matter. They can sometimes trigger mania in people who are bi polar. Rare in my view. Most people with bi polar dx take an AD with a mood stabilizer and possibly an antipsychotic.

A few months ago I was on 200mg (high dose) of Zoloft. I'm bipolar and at that dose of Z I was a wreck. Severely agitated, strong mixed cycles, lots of "negative mania"...it was a really bad scene. I'm now on 125mg Z and it seems pretty helpful.
