Affects of Zoloft for social anxiety ?

Question

I started taking a low dose of zolof today ( 25 mg) to help with my anxiety. One side affect is drowsyness. I'm drowsy, does that mean the medicine for my anxiety is starting to work ?

Answer 1

Yes, you will feel sleepy for the 1st week or so and then it will level off. I have been on it for 2 years and it works pretty well. Just be sure you don't just stop taking it because you will feel weird...taper off it.
