Can one day on Zoloft heighten anxiety? I think it has for me. It is also causing my tinnitus to kick up. I am trying to find help for chronic insomnia, but when you see a Psychiatrist, it seems they think you must have some depression I have just begun 100 MLG with a pill once in the morning and once at night. I am on an insomnia blog as well here, but this question has not been posted to them yet. Thanks

@olly I take Zoloft and it controls my anxiety. It does take a while for it to take effect so one day is not going to do anything. I hope this helps you.

Hi, @olly - I moved your post here to this existing discussion on sertraline/Zoloft so you can talk with others here about it. Glad you connected with @johnhans. Please meet @becsbuddy @cardioqueen29 @pharis022 and @parus, who also may have some input on how they felt right when they started this medication and how it went getting used to it.

Here's some information from Mayo Clinic on sertraline/Zoloft that may be useful, especially the section on side effects: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/sertraline-oral-route/description/drg-20065940

I know when I started on buproprion/ Wellbutrin (totally different medicine, but an antidepressant), I had a couple months of heightened anxiety that almost made me quit. A pharmacist I talked to, however, advised me to give it a full 2-3 months for my body to accustom to the medication. That turned out to be good advice for me, cause I levelled out and my depression improved and the anxiety went down.

How is your anxiety today?
