I'm no expert and no authority but that strikes me as a lot of zoloft. I tried it once because I had seasonal affective disorder. I was put on 25 mg. Another Dr told me to take 100 and I had a MAJOR manic disorder and I am NOT bipolar. I went off it and have never tried another psycho-active drug in my life. I think this stuff is poison. FOR ME. Again, I'm no expert and I am not making recommendations.

I've been on 100mg of Zoloft pretty regularly in the past. I think the dose can go as high as 200mg.
I hope that you're able to get your meds figured out soon, Sweepy. It can be really uncomfortable to go through the transition process. |

I'm glad you have a new diagnosis and plan that might help better and your therapist is standing by to help.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
