just a quick update. I'm almost completely off of the Zoloft. (the last phasing out bit was a bit vague, but I think I can be done now or after one more dose)
sadly, i don't have much else to report, is why i don't typically post in this thread. I guess i did reconnect with an old friend, so that's something.
about a month away from my next psychiatrist visit. I really don't know what to talk about yet.

edit: the weaning off the Zoloft was to stop gaining weight. I've actually lost weight, but i've been watching my diet and exercising. Still, i think it helped.
