Hi, Sal etc, How much are you taking? I found that I was able to handle a full dose quickly (unlike, say, what people experience with Serzone) and thus was able to note relief at around a month or five weeks. Here's some more salient details.
I started on 50mg and worked up to 75 mg within two months. As of my second child (when it pooped out) I'm on 100mg. I'm female, weigh about 145.
I read somewhere on this board that everyone has superior and inferior matches for drugs (maybe it was Cam W?). Zoloft was clearly a superior match for me. Before this my doctor tried Paxil and I was instantly incapacitated by migraines to the point of vomiting and extreme agitation so I got back off it within 10 days. Other than the bits of queasiness you get when going on any AD Zoloft gave me no other side effects. I haven't even had that much of a problem with sexual side effects (note I say *that much*, I do need to use powers of concentration and willpower more but I can get there).
> Good story...how long did it take for your Zoloft to work? 'cause I've been on it for a month and haven't felt any results.
