social anxiety disorde
"Sertraline does help Social Anxiety and Depression associated with this. I have been on it for nine months and if I said it has not provided me any benefit, I'd be lying. It allows you to think more rationally, therefore making CBT more effective and easier. Also, it is good for Depression. It helped me to be more positive and covered up my depressive thoughts, although they do come up every now and then. I take Zoloft primarily for SA and I feel I need something a little more anxiolytic, obviously Zoloft IS anxiolytic as it is an antidepressant, however I do feel slightly jittery and twitchy whilst on it (I am at a maximum 200mg). I am moving on soon, to Paxil or Lexapro, preferably Paxil. I'd recommend Zoloft for someone with a mix though"
