Default Positive Zoloft withdrawal stories
Hi

I am in the process of weaning off Zoloft under doctor's supervision. I have never taken more than 25mg a day in 18 months. I am taken 25mg every 2nd day for 2 weeks and have been doing this since Tuesday, the thing is I feel fine, really good actually, the doctor said I wouldn't have any side effects, but after looking on google I keep thinking they must hit soon.

Anyone have any positive stories to share.

Zoloft gave me horrid heaches. They went when I stopped taking it (under supervision). Absolutely no negative side effects here!

Thanks Ladies

Wonderful to hear positive stories, all I found I google was horror stories.

I feel like I have so much more energy already and feel so much more alive than I have in ages.

All the best to you all.

Charlie
