have been taking zoloft for 15 mths, gradually gone up to 300mg, and have been on that dosage for 10 mths. have experienced most symptons, dry mouth, vivid dreams (bad) tremors, weight gain. have recently had suspected seizure and have had eec, cat scan and am waiting for mmr . I have pins and needles on right side of head, involuntary spasms,, vague days and extreme tiredness. I could sleep most of the day and at night. I have to be very careful not to over exert because symptons are worse. have been worried about symptons being like ms but having visited this site am wondering if it's all down to the zoloft. Iwant to stop taking it.

hi stop taking zoloft i have just experienced similar reactions only i also had
periods of semi conciousness almost coma like with apnea doct put it down to anxiety attacks even with no history of them some of these symtoms (muscle spasms ) may become permanent as parts of your nervous system is being damaged .3 doctors at local hosp and my Gp Knew nothing of these side effects as they are uncommon or rare or occured early on in medical trials so are not known and are same as anxiety symptoms ms parkinsons i only know about these symtoms because i knew i wasn't having anxiety attacks and my symptoms started 2 weeks after an increase from 50 mg to 100mg hope this helps:)
