Yes, but it will take time and you will probably get some disturbing side effects. my worst was itching skin which is still going on after 4 weeks. Hang in there.

Me too Sandra. Started week 13 for me today. have been feeling pretty good lately! tonight however i have just been in a cranky mood, somewhat on edge and hard to concentrate on the littlest things like watch TV.... probably just having a moment and will be okay tomorrow, i just get scared of going back to where i started. this should pass for both of us! we have to stay positive 😃

With all the dose changes, there really hasn't been time to level. I would give that dose you're on now at least 6 weeks or so. The beginning of taking these can sometimes be like a roller coaster until it all gets settled. If you had a good day that is great! It means that its working! Just give it a steady amount of time. Zoloft was amazing for me, it works very well!
