I'm weaning off of Zoloft

peanut701

After some severe PPA, I'm weaning off of Zoloft to TTC baby #2. I'm doing this under an MD's supervision. I feel crazy right now. I am so, so full of anger. Everyone is ticking me off. I also can't concentrate at work at all and I'm getting really behind. Anyway, just looking for support, tips for coping, words of wisdom.

How have things been going?  Hang in there, weaning off of antidepressants definitely messes with your emotions.  However, if you find that you're having a tough time completing tasks you've always been able to do, you may have been weaning a bit too quickly.  Did you talk to your doctor about how you're feeling?  

It's normal to have shifts in your mood but if you can't get through your day-to-day activities, you need to say something.  GL !

I just weaned off myself before i got pregnant, i was only at 50mg so it was not that bad but i had a hard time and a few paniky episodes, i tried to wean off as slow as i could. Now that i have been off it a few months i still feel fine and everything has normaled out

I had moodswings but nothing i couldnt handle with some calmness or a nap

I haven't tried weaning off, but if you're having a really hard time, I would talk to your dr about staying on a low dose to keep things regulated. I actually started taking it during pregnancy.

I just weaned myself off. It's been a few days since I've taken it. I did it very, very slowly. I just kept cutting the pills down into tiny pieces. I have felt a little more emotional and unfocused, but nothing I can't handle. I did try to wean once before and really felt it. Hopefully, this time I can stay off for good. Good luck!
