"i have been unemployed now for three years and things have gone from bad to worse. i found myself losing control of my temper and crying for no reason or if someone said something that negative. i couldn&#039;t sleep and when i did it was for two hours at a time. sometimes i would stay up just crying. to add to my problems my back pain were getting worse. doctor diagnose me with depression and gave me zoloft. i started at 25mg for four days and then up to 50mg. it has been only a week, but i am not crying unexpectedly and feel calmer than i have in quite a while and have actually slept 5 hours straight. i had no side effects."
