"got prescribed zoloft after my 20 year relationship ended after my ex husband became addicted to meth. i was very depressed and couldn&#039;t control my thoughts about the situation, i had a hard time sleeping, zoning out, focusing, and adjusting to my normal everyday life. i started on 25 mg for about 3 weeks then increased to 50 mg. i&#039;ve been on 50mg for a couple months and feel so much better. i can focus on my life again and never break down crying anymore etc. i had no side effects besides loose stool here and there. i like how there were no real side effects for me and it did what i was seeking. i would recommend to try zoloft before other medications. i will not increase my dosage."
