Zoloft
by jimmyd1978, May 16, 2007 12:00AM
For the past few months I have been starting and stopping 50mg of Zoloft (stupid I know) A few days I had a horrible relapse of anxiety and have since started the 50mg again. Have I done damage to my brain by starting and stopping all the time? This time I plan on staying on Zoloft for at least 6 months before stopping. Thanks

I am not a doctor, but I am sure that you didn't do anything to your brain...however, you are probably giving yourself horrible side effects and then withdrawal....are you under a physicians care? Your doctor should be monitoring you as you go on and/or off. Stay on it! If you want to come off please do it under your doctor's care.

I agree with Suzi. Also, in case you were unaware of this suddenly stopping this type of medication can lead to very serious, and dangerous, "side"-effects, seizure is one of them. Neither quit these medications cold turkey, you need to "taper" off them.
