> Tough call. usually the drill is to stick it out for 4-6 weeks and see. I had some good effects at 50mg, but the bst results at 100. I tried 150 but I got twitchy and backed off to 100 where the depression returned. So Im at 125 for now.
> There are other meds out there. If youre anxious on zoloft maybe you could try something like lexapro? It has less of a reputation for anxiety and mixed stuff than zoloft, thats for sure.With Lexapro, one might experience increased anxiety between weeks two and three. It then disappears. One would not want to misinterpret this brief period of anxiety as a long-term side effect and therefore discontinue Lexapro because of this.
