    I didn't get the same problem affect, myself having epilepsy, I was having tremors and still I'm having tremors after a month, but yeah, as far as I know most side affects do pass, but you still should talk to a doctor about it. Good luck with you Kells123a.

    Diarrhea is very common upon starting or reducing any dosage amount. It's temporary.

      If anything I was more on the constipated side, like I had been using a pain believer, and hundreds of thousands of people all react much different, and I've only been on Zoloft for a month, oh plus other side affects.

    Do you drink alcohol, and eat sugary foods alot? Because that might have something to do with it, there's a reason why we can't mix alcohol, same thing with my Keppra Dilantin and especially Phenobarbital, it can mess people up for life mixing those kind of drugs with alcohol, anyway I you get better soon and hang in there okay. God bless.

    Kells123a, how long have you been on Zoloft, if that's what you're taking, I've done lots of research, but only been on it for a month.
