It is not dangerous to change from one to the other. I didn't take Prozac long enough for it to be effective, because I couldn't stand the anxiety it caused. Zoloft made my depression go away completely. The side effects I had: some insomnia, some jitteriness (but not really anxiety) and significant weight gain.
You WILL feel better. Feeling hopeless is a symptom of the depression! There is plenty of hope. And if Zoloft doesn't work, there are zillions of other medications to try.
