Me too. Zoloft gave me panic attacks starting the 3rd day. That was my first experience with panic attacks. I was starting Zoloft for anxiety. The NP said never heard of that side effect and to keep taking daily for 3 weeks. After 2 weeks I absolutely refused to live with panic attacks and discontinued Zoloft. Never had another panic attack. Providers have to stop telling patients that since they never heard of a side effect it isn't valid. They refuse to see the obvious in some situations. Panic attacks are not a side effect that you can get used to in 3 weeks.
I had the same reaction to Prozac. It is trial error with SSRI’s so I would recommend you try another one. Everyone reacts differently to SSRI’s. Hopefully you can find one that works for you.
Good luck.
