Two options:

1. Go slower. A lot slower. Make the journey away from zoloft a 3 month journey if need be. More important...reduce the dose in tiny steps. You can cut or shave tiny amounts off the tab, ya know. You are not limited to taking whatever size tabs you have. Doses do not need to be precisely accurate. With the help of a razor blade, you can go from 50mg to 47mg for a few day, then to 45mg for a few days, then 42mg for a few days, and so on. Reducing slowly in tiny tiny little steps makes it much smoother. It prevents most of the brain trauma you are feeling right now from things changing too much too fast.

2. Maybe go back to your previous dose and work with the doctor to treat the side effects? I mean, ritalin for example is commonly used for that? Ya know? Or whatever. Keep the good effect, but address the bad ones.
