thanks for your reply. no the doctor has not prescribed me anything to help with the side effects. i am going to see the doctor today and was thinking of asking her to up the dose to 100. do you think that would be a good idea?

when I was first prescribed Zoloft yrs ago,it took a good 8 weeks to start working well. You might notice some change right away,or it may take awhile. 3 weeks is not really long enough,but don't give up.It will start working!:) Has your doctor prescribed Ativan or Xanax to help you through side effects?
