This is just me....but I found Zoloft to be, especially after on it for awhile, the absolute worst med I have ever taken. (And I've taken pretty much all of the a.d.'s available here in Canada) It caused major, major crying spells, lack of energy, internal restlessness, and I have my worst memories in my entire *life* on that med. Now, it may just be me, but I found you have to try around some of the different SSRI's because they are not all the same. Prozac has been horrible to many people, but I have NO problems taking it.

It will take awhile and many, many med trials to find a right combo, but don't give up. I have started taking 5-10 mg\s of Ritalin 4 or so times a day, and being a small dose, it adds just a nice little 'boost' to my mood...but nothing overpowering or addictive. Benzos are good too...use them until you feel better, as they will *not* hurt you...they are very safe. Likely best until you find a combo that helps.

P.S. Have you tried slightly lowering your doses of Remeron and Zoloft, and taking them both at bedtime? Some people take SSRI's before bed too...while some need to take them in the morning.

Best wishes,
Jay
