zoloft and dreams

Posted by bookgurl99 on October 13, 2002, at 23:03:47

I am having incredibly vivid dreams on zoloft, TOO vivid. They just go on forever, until my alarm clock clicks off. Is this from too much serotonin flooding my brain? I would really like to be able to have a good night of just long deep sleep, with a tidbit of dreaming.

Has anyone else experienced this? Did you find any sort of relief for it?

I had much more vivid dreams on all the SSRI's, and never liked any of thr SSRI's. Elavil worked much better for me for sleep. Had to start with 5mg Elavil twice a day, then 10mg at night for several nights, and just had to work up the dosage as I adapted. I evened out at 30mg. Elavil at night, and 20 mg. in the morning.

Was just posting about vivid dreams. I had that on prozac, and it never stopped til I switched. It was fun for the first week or so, but then the dreams just seemed tiring. Plus many were gross.

I don't get that s/e on celexa, effexor, serzone, or wellbutrin.
