Hey everyone,

I was wondering if any of you has been on Zoloft before? I'm fairly sure others have been...

One of my friends just told me she didnt like it..

I'm on it mostly for anxiety.

I'm also taking 350mg Seroquel at night and 36mg Concerta

Hi, I'm Christina from Portugal, 20 years old and studying Biochemistry in university. I was recently (this August) diagnosed with bipolar disorder, after years of depression, taking Lexapro and floating through my first two years of college (which I now recognize as being a manic episode). My psychiatrist initially put me on 50mg of Zoloft and 2mg ( Read more... )

I'm scared. I'm out of it, my friendships all seem unreal, I'm nervous all the time, I'm slightly depressed. So I told my pdoc all this and I said I just didn't think after 10 years that Wellbutrin is cutting it. I've never taken an SSRI while taking a mood stabilizer like Zyprexa.

My pdoc has found the magic combination for me:
200 mg Lamictal
50 mg Zoloft
1.5 mg Klonopin

I've been on this combo since January and have been "stable" since.  This is the longest I've been this way since my diagnosis in 2005.

Maybe it's the pessimist in me, but how long is this going to last?  I feel like I'm waiting for the other shoe to
