Zoloft isnt as stimulanting with NE properties, but it will level some mood/s that deal with serotonin.

Hi MeAgain I took cymbalta when new at 60mg and stopped after three months with a benzo as no changes. I think a couple of meds after that did go on zoloft only took 50mg and never went up but no side effects. Neither my doc or I can remember why I didn't increase dose. At one time previous by quite a few years I found zoloft stimulating but noticed nothing at 50mg. I do know it works for two of my family member now and they like it I think one on l00mg. How come your're switching? Love Phillipa

I am switching because cymbalta has been harsh on my body..if that makes sense. Plus I have OCD issues and I have been told that Zoloft can help. Thank you so much for your input..it helps. Oh yeah..do you take it at night or day? or does it matter? EM
