I'm sorry you are having such a rough time of it. You might want to ask you doctor if you can take some Gravol to help settle your stomach while you adjust to the new med. Anxiety is a pretty common side effect when you are adjusting to a new med (at least it was for me). So, you may want to ask your doctor for a prescription for a small amount of Xanax (or another benzo) to relieve the anxiety while you adjust to the med. When I first went on Paxil years ago, my doctor gave me a small prescription of Xanax to help with the anxiety, which, like you, was pretty bad for the first couple of weeks. But don't despair, it should go away in a few weeks(it did in my case).

Take care of yourself, and I hope the Zoloft starts to work soon. But, be patient, it will take a few weeks to notice any changes.
