Who here is/was on Zoloft?
I'm on day 10 50mg.
First day I took it I felt high as fuck, giggling butterflies in stomach. No side effects except small nausea sometimes.
It also blocks out my negative voices in head but I just kind of feel like a peace of meat.

Who here is/was on Zoloft?
I'm gay.
Stick it in my ass
Checked faggot
Damn.
That fucking bitch's ass.
I would destroy that fucking poon.
Same.
I was on a max dose of it.
Completely altered my personality and brain. I don't get depressed anymore and I'm no longer on it.
It's a man
200 mg a day for years. dependent on it now.
Max dose? 200mg?
Don't care.
Yeah it completely changed my brain chemistry for the better imo.
I was also on a lot of other shit because I was completely insane when I was younger.
Now I'm much better, mostly stable, and do well in life. I have bad days but I get through it.
My doctor's/therapists deserve some of the credit too.
Did you get any kind of disability?
Crazy when young as used drugs heavily?
I was offered it by my doctors.
But my conservative father was all like,
>No son of mine is living off the government.
Which forced me to have to figure out how to be a high-functioning mentally ill person.
Damn, your father is a piece of shit. Or maybe he isn't because you told you are doing good for yourself.
How long did you take Zoloft if you can recall?
Lol.
Probably a year or two. I was on a bunch of shit. Stuff I can't even pronounce.
You name it. Benzos. Antipsychotics. Mood stabilizers. SSRIs. SNRIs. Sleeping stuff.
Worst thing that ever happened to me chemical wise. Folks put me on it cause they thought I was depressed. Started hearing voices, talked to some deity, was told I could be the chosen one by it.
I couldn't feel really happy or really sad, just made me feel like a meat puppet with no emotions. 0/10 would not recommend to anyone
But what were you diagnosed with?
Schizo? (No pun)
I think it's doing good for me except voices telling to kill myself every night
Absolutely.
You're right on the money. Idk how you knew.
Depends which doctor you ask. But it seems that is the consensus yes.
I'm pretty high-functioning though. I'm not normal, but we're trying.
I'm watching you. Joking.
The stuff you took betrayed it,
Im glad you are doing goodish
Also on 200 mg. Been on meds since I was about 5, Zoloft has been my prescription for almost 12 years now. Going on 32 this year.
5 sounds young, I get it. But I also have a family history of mental illness on both sides - depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.
It's been a fight, but I feel like it's well worth it. Like the other user said, there are rough days. For me, I'm not only a functional person, I don't feel like a zombie like you hear many say - I have the full range of feelings, albeit actually balanced. I can't fault those who think medication is a crock, because it's sadly over-prescribed.
You do you my friend, but I'd take the super low lows so long as I can feel happy every once in a while. I feel like Zoloft put holes in my brain that'll I'll never be able to fully patch up.
The murmuring voices talking behind my back like the nerd walking through his school and different groups / cliques of people talking sht behind my back ... I couldn't take it anymore. I wanted to kill myself so badly but I'm in a much better place now.
