i agree with purellgirl, i'm also on zoloft but i'd try talking to your dr about taking something that doesnt give you those side effects

Hello,

I am currently on Sertraline, the generic form of Zoloft, so I know what some of the side effects can feel like.

As for the medication, did your doctor or psychiatrist prescribe it to you? Whicever it was, perhaps you could discuss going on a different type of medication and see how that goes. It may work better for you because everyone is different.
