After 4 months I increased to 37.5 then i started getting severe chest pain and shortsness of breath on exertion. Chest pain scared me enough to put me in hosp. were i got a stress test everything normal. So doc recommended Cymbalta which i took one dose 30 mg and got very sick. To much bad rap on side effects of cymbalta . So i went back to 25mg zoloft until today. My anxiety is getting worse and my depression is still in the crapper. I know somethings got to help. I took zoloft in the past 100mg worked great. Why is this time I'm having all these problems? I've been on zoloft, prozac, effexor,mirt,and paxil which was imposible to get off. Cymbalta no i cant do another one. Oh i'm taking 15mg of CDB oil every night. My anxietymakes falling a sleep and staying asleep very difficult. As for depression just cant seem to get happy anymore. And that really bums me out because i enjoyed life so much. That happiness just is hiding. I just need a little more of a push maybe abilify?

Since Dec 2018. I went up to 37.5 mg in late December early January and got severe chest pain from it. Or I thought that’s where the chest pain was coming from. Ended up in the emergency room and had a stress test that said everything was OK. I was on Zoloft once before about three years ago. and had a problem and the doctor decided to switch me to Effexor instead. I was doing pretty good on 100 mg at the time. But when I try to increase my Zoloft I increase my anxiety. And I wanted to change that. So that’s why they put me on Effexor. Which I was on for about four months. They change my meds again because I couldn’t sleep at night to Mert . I slept well but my depression got really bad. Ended up in the hospital for a week. They started me on Paxil and I was on that for most of the summer. But the nausea was so bad for three months I lost almost 40 pounds. So they switch me to Lexapro started at 5 mg always the way up to 25 mg in a year and my depression didn’t get any better. Actually got kind of worse. And so now I’m back on Zoloft For one more try. Lately having a hell of a time trying to sleep at night. My anxiety gets the best of me and I toss and turn and get about 4 for one more try. Lately having a hell of a time trying to sleep at night. My anxiety gets the best of me and I toss and turn and get about 4-5 hours of sleep a night. now I get up every day go to work never missed a day at work. I make it a point to either go to the gym or go for a long walk with my wife for 2 miles every night. So I’m kind of stuck right now I want to do next. I’m also trying to meditate every evening To calm everything down. I don’t drink caffeine at all and I don’t smoke.
