Hi.
If you taper your doses effectively, it might not be so uncomfortable. If it were me, I would restart it and use a flexible dosing strategy to taper and discontinue the drug altogether. It shouldn't take more than a few weeks.
Flexible dosing strategies are discussed elsewhere on this page. I am currently the only proponent of its use, but it looks promising based on what others are reporting.
How much Zoloft were you taking? How did you go about discontinuing it?
I don't think you can generalize to others your difficulties in discontinuing Zoloft and pronounce it a bad drug. I have seen it be a lifesaving drug for the people who need it.
Good luck, whatever you decide.
