I am glad to hear from you again, Tina! I hope all your tests come out ok.


I haven't taken zoloft, but others have reported success with it. My mom & 2 of her friends take it for sleep. It does cause sleepiness until you get adjusted, so bedtime dosing is a good idea. My gf has taken it for depression for several years with success.


Here's some positive links on zoloft: http://messageboards.ivillage.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=iv-bhpaxil&msg=12759.1&ctx=128

I was on it briefly several years ago, but I had to stop taking it because it made me so sick to my stomach. Everyone is different, though. Give it a try. Just be prepared that it can cause some side effects. Like many other antidepressants, Zoloft can take several weeks to work.

I am happy to hear that you are going to start meds for your anxiety.
