    5 Days On Zoloft Feel Super Depressed

    Okay I'm not going to lie because I was a bit depressed before, not to a high level. It was more depression because I was always worried/anxious and I was tired of feeling that way. I was depressed because my anxiety was holding me back, making me sick, whatever. However it was a mild level of...

    Intense Memory Or Flashback?

    Well I read something once that adrenaline and anxiety can make time slow down, make things more intense like things happened in slow motion even if they didn't. I have one very specific memory that is so traumatic I know I'm not remembering it right and it's weird and fuzzy and even though it...

    Starting Zoloft (and Terrified)

    The only problem I ever had (long term) on Zoloft was my hands would shake. That's about it and to be fair back then I was on 200mg so that's a lot to be on as opposed to 50mg which I understand may or may not increase as time goes on depending how I respond to it. What I do know is right now...

    Starting Zoloft (and Terrified)

    Well is it even possible to start smaller than 25mgs? I could call her and ask her about that. Though I have like three days before that point and I think the first few days are the hardest. I'm going to stick with 25mgs until Monday and if it's just too insufferable I'll call her and ask about...

    Starting Zoloft (and Terrified)

    Thank you for your support you guys and yes I was on zoloft before in fact it's the only thing I can ever remember helping me but with the start up side effects and the fact that I start a new job on Monday (one I've always wanted and it took years to get) I'm afraid I'm going to be too sick to...

    Starting Zoloft (and Terrified)

    in the past few months before they had a solid diagnosis on what the problem was they tried me on several things that only made everything a hundred times worse (even if I stuck with it long enough for it to "kick in") for instance prozac made me so apathetic to everything I stopped feeling love...

    Intense Memory Or Flashback?

    She asked me about certain events and or memories and I said sometimes I have ones so intense sits like I'm back there. The one particular memory I am talking about in this post relates to a horribly abusive relationship I was in with someone and it's why I felt like I was back there. At the...

    Intense Memory Or Flashback?

    My psychiatrist today told me how I described it, it's a flashback. So I guess I have to go with that?

    Intense Memory Or Flashback?

    See I don't think I have flashbacks but sometimes I'll be doing something and have an insanely vivid memory of something else. For instance I was listening to a song just now that I haven't heard in a while and it gave me feelings from a while back when I first heard the song and triggered a...

    I Cant Get To Sleep Anymore. Too Anxious To Try To Sleep

    I'm very similar, because of my disturbing dreams I put sleep off. I am very tired but I don't want to sleep I'm always finding something else to do but like Scout86 said, I do basically the same thing. I put time aside where I at least try to force myself to sleep. Even if I'm really just...

    Sufferer Recent Diagnosis

    So for like 10 years I've been seeing the same therapist and we really didn't have a clue what was wrong with me, my biggest issue has always been anxiety (as well as OCD) lately for whatever reason things have gotten awful for me. I spent about 5-6 years being relatively fine (I was on...
