I tried Zoloft for 9 months and I had no side effects I took 50mg a day plus I had ativan for when I really needed it.......it tokk me about 2 weeks to wean myself which I would take a pill and miss maybe the next day......to tell you the truth it did help I guess but I also really tried to heal myself thru diet and excercise and vitamins.
It worked but I still have anxiety nut not as bad.....I was frightened to be on meds so I took myself off...not saying there not good for some people it helped I just perfered a more natural approach.
i did think Aitvan really helped me thru those tough days.....I had the anxiety where I was scared all the time....my fear response was stuck in high gear
