It has been two weeks now and the sleepies went after ten days or so, which is great. I also feel LOADS better, more positive, more energetic.

So hoorah for Zoloft

The only remaining side effecr is a dimishing of libido, but I'll see if that passes and if not will talk to my herbalist about some Ginko or something.

I am SO relieved to have found something that works - it has taken me 2 years and about 7 anti-depressants, so I wanted to give some hope to those who were in my position.
