I don't think it is a normal reaction, but I'm sure that is could trigger anxiety in some people.

Zoloft was the first medication I took for anxiety and unfortunately it triggered worsened anxiety and I had to discontinue it. If you've only been on it for a few days, it may settle down, but otherwise I'd say not good. I'd talk to your doctor for sure.

It is normal for anxiety to increase when starting zoloft. Don't give up, it means it's getting into your system. You will feel better in a few days.
