How was 100 mgs of Zoloft too much for you and how long did you stick with 100 mgs? Is it clarity of thought that you were suffering from with Zoloft? Again, how long were you on Zoloft? Was your clarity of thought impaired at all before you started Zoloft or Prozac? Do you know that chronic depression/anxiety causes brain damage? Are you sure that you were not already having issues with clarity of thought and then attributed the problem to the antidepressant you started taking? If the antidepressant is causing any of this, it is possible that with time and doing other things, like exercise(increases blood flow and oxygen in the brain and promotes neurogenesis in the hippocampus-the part of the brain that suffers damage due to depression/anxiety), the cognitive symptoms will subside quite a bit.
