If you mean that the medication has stopped working, yes, that has happened to me in the past. Then I had to start a new regimen.

im not sure how to explaine it....zoloft did wanders for me for 7 years the over a period of 5 months my panic attacks started back...so the dr upped it and i did ok for about a week and one morning i woke up and holy cow it hit me anxiety was thru the roof ive been stuck like this for a yr now....what im tryn to say is it possiable for it to turn on me? make me worse?

I am not sure. I have been trying to stay off meds - I do therapy and when absolutely necessary ativan 0.5 mg only as needed. I hope that you find answers soon. If the zoloft is making you worse maybe talk to your doctor about coming off it and trying something different - whether that is another med, therapy or a combination.

I took zoloft for about a month when I had my first anxiety attacks two years ago but came right off it as I didn't want to be dependent on meds until absolutely necessary.

I see. Yes, I think that could be possible. More likely, you may just need to add an anti-anxiety medication along with the Zoloft. At least that's what I had to do. I had to add Xanax to the Effexor that I take for depression. It made a world of difference in my anxiety levels. I'm not certain what your doc is thinking, but it might be good to get a 2nd opinion if you're not getting relief. I hope this helps a little. Hugs!

he is weaning me off the zoloft im at 25mg and started effexor xr today 37.5mg and in 6 days i stop zoloft and go up to 75mg of effexor....he asked me if i wanted a benzo...but i told him i dont want to depend on them...dont like how they make me feel...but took ativan anyways for emergencys...so that where i stand...this dr is new to me...hes very expensive but everybody rec him said he was really good...so i went to him...

Yes, I took a depression med for 10 years for minor depression. It quit working and I came off of it slowly and I had more problems than I started with. MAJOR anxiety and panic attacks nightly and reflux, digestion issues. My advice is to take the natural route and medications can cause more harm than good as it's a chemical you are adding to your body.

i just seen him for the first time last wed...and agian yesterday...yes i have bad anxiety but the mind fog is a big prob too...

summer tired that...for about 5yrs never got any relief..meds are the only thing that has worked...i know their bad but im to the point i dont care if i have to take 8 meds lol i just want to feel better
