You sound SSRI-sensitive. Zoloft caused a lot of restless legs and jaw clenching and some bruxism for me (worse than most SSRI's). You could possibly try adding a little (10-20mg/day) of a TCA such as nortriptyline (which has anticholinergic effects that might help), or adding some Neurontin (which possibly could help with bruxism or restless legs), OR adding some Buspar to negate some of the serotonergic effects of the Zoloft that could be contributing to those symptoms, OR adding a benzodiazepine (clonazepam, diazepam), OR try a little Serzone with it to see if that helps with the restlessness-motor aspect of it.
