It'll be 3 days I'll have been off it. Zoloft 100mg. Does anyone know of anything I can do to reduce withdrawal or to get it sooner?

Why Monday? Could you contact your prescriber to send another 'script to a different pharmacy?

All pharmacies near me are closed this weekend. I have the worst insurance ever and I called a few different numbers and no one had any idea what to say or cared at all about my situation.

Could you call a local hospital and ask what they would recommend doing? Maybe a one has a pharmacy or at least someone knowledgeable on medication and can give you some advice

A lot of doctors and even pharmacists won't really give me any information over the phone. I think it's for legal/liability reasons.

So even if you got a new 'script you'd have no where to fill it?
