"i starting taking zoloft after speaking to my doctor about my problems -- irritability, sadness, loss of sex drive, poor body image, etc.  she suggested we try this medication for one year at 50 mg a day.  within 2.5 weeks, i started feeling better. i wasn&#039;t mad all the time and even managed to have sex again after a nine month hiatus. i felt much more confident and in control of my emotions. i even managed to lose 15 pounds and am still losing. i have experienced no side effects whatsoever."
