Zoloft Increased dose side effects

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has any experience with upping their dose and having waves of sadness and just a blah feeling. I'm going from 100 mg ( which worked but I still had depression/ anxiety) to 150mg so far 6 days. How long til it kicked in?
Thank you

Just like there is an adjustment period when you first start a med like Zoloft, there is also an adjustment period when increasing your dose.  It is usually not quite as long as the initial adjustment period, but you still may need 3-4 weeks to start seeing improvements in your mood, and a decrease in any side effects.

Just hang in there for a little while.
