weaning zoloft & feeling loopy

in Postpartum Depression

i am weaning off zoloft this way:

first i just halved my dosage from 25mg to 12.5mg/day.

then i skipped taking it once a week, then  skipped 2x a week & now i take it basically every 2-3 days,, on the day that i take it, i feel really loopy. i can still function fine, but i get tired mid afternoon. 

i would like to just stop rather than take it every three days, then every 4, etc...

 

what was your method & how did you feel?

i feel like i really dont need it at all but this was the plan my doctor explained to me...

    Weaning yourself more slowing my help.  It helped me.  I took a lower dose a week at a time.
