Today we all got our notice. Starting next week, we're all on a rotating lay off. (1 week on, 1 week off). I work at a small place (about 30 people). Thanks to this program, I'm going to treat this as a fresh start. If I end up being laid off permanently, I'll be ok. I could always go back to school...

I don't know what the "normal" time it should take to fall asleep but I would consider you incredibly lucky to be able to fall asleep in 10 minutes.

Welcome, and I am sorry for your loss of your Dad. I am 32, lost my Mom when I was 27 to cancer, and have been convinced ever since that every twinge I get is cancer. I have had so many ER and doc visists, tests, etc, it is ridiculous, but it does not make me feel better. I'd love to hear more about...

I have been on 100 mg of zoloft for a little over 3 weeks and still not feeling great. Should i give it more time or go up on the dose? My doctor suggests i go up. He mentioned why be on medication if it's not giving you the full effect. I'm scared to increase the dose. Can anyone who is on over 100...

I have been on zolft for over a month. I gradually increased the dose and i am now on 100 mg for about 2 weeks. I have been feeling better than i was, but still not good. I just had an awful weekend. I was out Saturday night and felt dizzy and nauseaus. I was also tense and nervous. I did not enjoy ...

I am being really good about going places and doing things even though i am very anxious and depressed. However, i don't feel that when i keep doing these things, i feel better. I still get anxious. For example, if i am anxious about going to the mall, but go anyway and do well, i am still afraid to...

so my doctor warned me about researching online because what i read will scare me. He is right! I am reading good and bad things about zoloft and the bad things are scaring me. I just increased my dose to 75 mg (i'm taking baby steps). I have been on the zoloft for a little over a month. I still don...

Please let me know if you can relate. IF i fall asleep on the sofa, i wake up in a panic (i feel startled and as if i'm confused/spacey). If i fall asleep in bed and wake up, i don't feel startled. Is this weird?

I just don't feel well, but i don't know how to describe it. I am struggling throughout the day. I wake up and don't want to face the day, i'm shaky, and the negative thoughts are constant. I can't seem to think positively, and if i try it doesn't work. I am on week 4 and taking Zoloft for 2 weeks. ...

It is 2 weeks that i am on Zoloft. I started taking 25mg and now i am on 50mg. I am STILL not feeling better. I am not even feeling slightly better. In fact, i feel worse at times. I struggle throughout the day. I guess i just have to wait longer. How will i know if this is the right medicine for me?
