I started taking Zoloft about one and a half months ago. Pretty much sense I took the first pill I have been smoking weed also, close to every night after taking my nightly pill. I am 15 years old and am in the ninth grade. I was subscribed Zoloft because I was becoming severely depressed, I was being really edgy and very high tempered. My family and I have recently moved to a small town out in the country. Away from the large group of friends that took me about four years to develop. I was really popular at the school I was going to before we moved. I had friends that lived close to me and I could just go to their houses and hang out after school and on the weekends. I could actually be getting some right now on this Saturday afternoon. Now I go to a completely different high school, where I know absolutely NO ONE. Everyone has already made their friends and they have no interest in trying to make friends with me. Everyone acts differently. I have had a VERY hard time making the few friends I have now. Before taking my Zoloft I will admit that I was very depressed. That depression has faded in some cases. But I have noticed a social change sense taking my Zoloft. I have been really shy and have had a very hard time interacting with people and making friends. Its hard for me to talk to people I don't understand and know. My mom tells me that she has seen people on Zoloft become "zombified". She says they loose their personality and don't interact with people. I have seen that for my self, to become true. I know that I was more social before I started taking Zoloft. I still smoke marijuana almost nightly. Could this be the reason of any of the side affects I have mentioned? Or have these side affects appeared with other people?
