Ihaveto say that I didn't do well onZoloft. My keyboard is a testimony for that. When I was onit, I wasazombie. Nowthat i"vebeen off it for thepast three weeks; it's been a bleary nightmare. First mind shivers/electrical jolts,thenMOODSWINGS. It's been awful..My (maybe fifth pdoc?) put me onZoloft after effexor and told me torelax. It'd be ok b/c Zoloft was EASY to come off of. It'sbeenworse than Effexor.
I've had theworst rages in the past week over NOTHING. i'VE Been doing homeimprovement type of things that led me to absolute destitute tears....ofrage rage rage so much i punched thispoor keyboard. now what to do?
it's my experience since you were asking.

> 1) Prozac made me VERY Angry/Irritable, Zoloft does too....WHY? What is it about those 2 ssri's that could cause that? (If it helps, Lamictal also made me that way) Geez, I really need to figure this out!
