Hi I have been on zoloft for 3 months and the very first side effect I can remember was being really freaking tired. I mean like very weak. My mouth got really dry. I had loose stools for awhile. I would steady shake and feel tremors in my hands. I would get really scared. My anxiety attack during the 1st month got worse. My sleep pattern was wonderful for the 1st month. I lost my appetite for food for about a couple of weeks. I didnt notice the fog coming until like my 2nd month. Sometimes you mind would get foggy and you would stare in one place and you would snap out of it. On the end of my second month i noticed i was getting happier and my anxiety went away just a little. You would experience tremors when you take your pill on a empty stomach or miss a pill. I noticed it makes you smile quite a bit but you still remain in a fog like state. My 3rd month now it seems to elevate your moods so you can feel a little symptoms and then you feel it go awy from time to time. I know ccrazy and vivid things run in your mind. I also notice you are sensitve to sunlight and your sensitivity increases. aNYHOW i will let you know more later.

I am on 200mg of Zoloft. I started it last January, and have slowly increased my dosage to find the correct dosage. I am starting to feel anxiety again, and feel as though your body gets used to the meds, and you continually need a higher dosage. I am jittery, have insomnia, have very vivid dreams, tremors, my eyes tremor when I try to close them and I see flashes of light, when I nod my head down towards my chest it tremors, i am restless, it has made my add worse, it causes slight weight gain, muscle twitching...it worked fine, but the higher the dose, the worse the side effects, and here I am with anxiety again. I suppose I need to switch my meds - maybe try lexapro. But definitely get a new psychiatrist.

I have been taking Zoloft for 4 years now, I had previously been on Prozac but experienced nightmares. I have had the dosage of the Zoloft increased 3 times and am currently at 100mg which I have been at for about a year. I am so glad I found this site, I too have the electrical shocks in my hear, slight tremors and tingling in my lips and left eye, but most disturbing is the gastric problems that have increase drastically in the last 2 months. After a CT, MRI and a gastroscope that found nothing I think I may have figures it out. It is a side effect of the Zoloft. I am not sure what I will do, I do not want to be depressed again.
Thank you so much for this website and for all of you who have posted.

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.
