I have been on Zoloft for about 8 months. I began taking it for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and eating issues. Since I have been on it, my eating issues have gotten a lot worse. I began binging, something I've never done before. I have racing thoughts and feel like I am just floating through life. My weight has gone from about 120 to 155. I am not happy, and am considering coming off of the medication. Has anyone else noticed they have not been able to control their eating while on Zoloft? However, my anxiety did subside.

Been on Zoloft for 7 years - from 100mg and now 200mg daily for depression and mild anxiety. I have terrible headaches when I miss two days or more (my fault, of course!). I also found that my depression and mood swings were TERRIBLE when I first tried birth control pills (as someone else mentioned). However, different BC pills will have different effects and I have now found that Lo-Ovral is a a good match for me (after my Dr increased my Zoloft daily intake by 50 mg).

ATTENTION: if you are on birth control pills and having awful side effects with zoloft it could be the bcpills. I have been on 4 anti depressants in the last year and had difficult problems with all of them especially zoloft. I had diarhea and constipation, I had break through bleeding, irregular periods, and increased anxiety, depression, mood swings, panic attacks, separation anxiety, and awful headaches. Please. I have been to doctors who diagnoised me with IBS, ovarian cysts, depression, ADD, and OCD. I might have tendency towards all of these, but listen I am not this person, I have been off the bcp andn I am feeling better. Dont ignore this warning if I only could have had it!
