As you might remember I am new here, having received a new diagnosis last week from OCD to bipolar.

Jennifer:

Unfortunately, yes, these could be side effects to the zoloft. FORTUNATELY, it seems like most of the side effects fade within 2-4 weeks.

I know it is horrible right now - when I started on lithium I struggled for a week - but the best advice I can give is to do you best to make it another week or two and see if you start to improve.

Good luck!!

Jennifer,


In all liklihood is is a side effect of the meds--nausea, fatigue and headaches are real common side effects with psych meds.
