I've been on 25mg of generic Zoloft for a week and I've developed...

listen to the signs - Zoloft almost killed me

I started taking zoloft about a month a half ago for anxiety/depression and two days later developed a lump in my throat and a dry throat when i breathed, i would feel the air hitting the back of my throat. It was so bothersome but I stayed on the zoloft until about 2 weeks ago I went off it because I felt my anxiety had subsided which it has and everything is fine. I feel good. When I went off it the dryness started going away but not all the way and in it's place the lump continued and still has not gone away. I thought it could be anxiety but I don't see anyway because I feel good and not anxious, only about the lump and how annoying it is. I have GERD and it could be related to that. It can apparantly get worse with the use of antidepressants and progestin, I was on zoloft and the pill. I have now gone off both but still have the lump and some dryness. Has anyone else experienced this? I have heard that it could be GERD but I am confused now that I am off the meds why the feeling has not gone away. I'm going to see my doctor on Thursday.

Hi i am 23 i also take this medication for anxiety and i developed that lump in my throat and it was hard to swallow it was more anxiety about taking the tablet.
At present i am weaning off 50mgs to start our family and am suffering the worst migrain headaches for days and feel like sleeping all the time,i feel better nowing im not the only one having this side affect
