Researched and found liquid zoloft online and told my psych about it -- he also had never heard of it! and this is 5 years later! one would THINK that if doctors are so willing to put people on meds like this, they would ALSO be familiar with a strategy for getting off the drug. it's criminal, if you ask me. well, i feel really good taking this in my own hands and will begin the tapering off this week after i pick up the liquid prescription later today. wish me luck... liquid was the only way i could get off of paxil…unfortunately life happened and i had to get on effexor, then a switch to zoloft a few weeks ago. finally am fed up with it all and am trying to get off entirely. currently down to 25mg of zoloft every other day, but then the zaps and irritability get too much and i can’t function at work (stumbling down the hallway bc i feel like the building is falling is just not working for me).

They do have many, many side effects. But as for whether or not you should taper off, that's a decision only you can make. Well, it is likely the zoloft or aderall is making you pass out like that.

Wed, 19 Oct 2011 16:57:47 +0000 http://www.emotional-times.com/?p=18#comment-26002 Hi, I have been taking zoloft for a little over a month and I have noticed that when I stand up I black out for a second or two. This didn't happen before. Is it the zoloft? Should I start to get off it? I also got put on Aderall for ADHD at the same time. Is it both together that is causing these symptoms? I'm 18 yrs young and more than concerned. Thank you for the info about how to get off it if I must.

I started taking Zoloft 6 months ago, after the birth of my second daughter. Post Partum, which I had after my first, but didn't know it. It did great things for me (although I have gained weight, but I thought it was the IUD that they gave me, and had that taken out with no relief from the weight gain... hmm...)Sorry, back to my withdrawls... I was just 'terminated' from my job after 6 years (along with 45 other people). You would think that I would need a higher dosage, right? Nope... I'm wonderful mentally. So wonderful, I didn't even get a refill before my insurance ran out. UH OH. So, here I am. Nothing to 'taper' off with, feeling great emotionally, but man. I am so dizzy. I had to leave the grocery store yesterday for fear of vomiting in the frozen foods. My neck and back are killers... and I generally just feel like I have the flu. How can I deal with these symptoms holistically? (as I don't want to pay full price for another refill) So here's my issue.
