New here and Zoloft question

cookimonstar

I'm new to this board.  I've been lurking just for a little bit now.  I've been living in PPD/PPA/OCD denial for awhile and finally went to my Dr. the other day.  I was given Zoloft.  

Last night was my first time taking it.  Has anyone else felt nausous from taking it?

hi there! as like you i was in denial and actually started the anxiety during my pregnancy. i just talked to my dr last week and started it monday. i got like an "empty" stomach feel and didn't feel like eatting. that isn't as bad now but i still get it. i also get like an indigestion feeling...i am hoping it all goes away. my dr said that i might have a wierd feeling for a few days b/f it takes hold. give it 2 weeks she said but i have heard it can take 6 weeks b/f you figure out what u need

I too didn't start taking it until K was almost 8.5 months or so - I put off getting help for so long...

Anyways - I did feel a bit nausous and also had a couple nights of really bad anxiety - the dr said it was my body getting used to it.  All is fine now.  I take it at night b4 bed with a full glass of water.  GL!  Hope you start feeling better soon!

I was diagnosed with PPOCD and have been on Zoloft for a month or so and it seems to be working well for me. The first few days I felt pretty crummy--nauseous, dizzy and a little drugged. That went away quickly, though. I hope you feel better soon!

Yea, I felt really sick for a good week and then it all subsided and i've felt fine every since.
