Postpartum Depression

yet another zoloft question...

I am trying to figure out what kind of reaction is going on here.  I am on day 4 of zoloft, and woke up today very anxious.  I started first day 12.5mg, then 18.75 for 2 days, and today 25mg.  It seemed to calm me for a few hours, and now brought crazy anxiety and fast heartbeat.  I have never been anxious at night through this whole thing, so I know it's the meds.  Any advice?  Normal? Or do I need to switch meds?

Re: yet another zoloft question...

  • I had that off and on when I was first starting and again when I was upping my dose. I started at 50mg and at first felt like that for about 3 days.  When I upped my dose to 100mg I felt that way for about 2 days.  I think it's pretty normal since your body is getting used to the medication.  I'd wait a few days after you have been taking your full dose and if you're still feeling that way, then call your dr.

  • take it in the morning - it helps with issues at night.
  • You've been posting the same question multiple times for at least the past two months... Is there a reason you're asking the same question and not listening to people's advice? Everyone has told you the same thing - give it time.
