I was using Zoloft from february until a month ago. My depression was deepend in March when I lost my husband of 20 years. I used a small dosage of Tolvon in the night to sleep better.
I stopped using any medication abt. a month ago - I felt better and my doc felt the same way abt. me. The last 2 weeks have been horrible - I cry all the time and I just want to die... I talked to my doc and he said I should not feel it to be a defeat to start medication again.
When I stopped my meds I was abt to change from Zoloft to Efexor because I had been on Zoloft for a long time and they didn't give the wanted result.
Now I am in doubt: I usually get side effects. (Zoloft gave me a bit nausea and I sweat night and day) Are the side effects of Effexor worse?
I have been OK on Zoloft - no anxiety.Will it be the same with Efexor???? I'm having a bad time as it is and don't wan't to add more anxiety to my gray life...
Hope to hear from someone with experience :-)
