Question

Anybody ever taken Zoloft? What was your experience taking it?

Answer 1

I took zoloft last September.  My doctor presribed sertraline which is the generic version of zoloft.  It seemed to work well until I noticed the rapid weight gain.  OMG I gained like 25 pounds and there was no end in sight as to how much more weight I could gain.  I realized at that point I was more depressed than before because of all the weight gain.  Everyone is different but I have asked this question and got the same results that it packs on the pounds.  Dont stop taking it until you have talked to your doctor.  

Wellbutrin, from my experiences and from others, is the most weight neutral of all the anti depressants.

Good luck.  I wish you the very best.

Answer 2

I have been taking it for about 2 months. I am only 12 but it has considerably helped with my depression and anxiety. If you are having trouble with this kind of thing i would recommend you to take it as it has helped me tremendously  

Answer 3

I've taken Zoloft for about 2 years. It upset my stomach in the beginning, but I've gotten used to it. I've had good results with it.
