There are more doctors coming around but if they’ve never had a patient with this problem….!?!? They should be reading all the new information that has come out over the past decade or so. I hate that I ever tried these meds. I’ve never felt well on any of them and I have tried four with several diagnoses that were wrong. Too many docs and patients passing them off as “happy” pills.

Literally!

I am back on. Thank you 🙏🏻 for your note. After years of investigation I found I was never diagnosed when I was placed on ZOLOFT in the mid 80s. I was going through a very difficult time in my life and I needed help. I am confident the doctor who prescribed ZOLOFT believed he was doing the right thing. We are simply fortunate medicine has advanced and will continue to advance as more and more tools become available.
