Hey everyone. I've recently started Zoloft for my social anxiety disorder. And I've noticed that my food cravings have changed. Before starting meds, I'd constantly want something that's high in sugar, like sodas, candies, chocolate, pastry and cakes. Now I'm neutral to all sweet food. Even more, when I drink or eat something sweet, I think it tastes awful. Cakes and pastry used to be one of the things that'd cheer me up, I guess it's because of sugar rush. And now I don't want to buy or eat anything sweet. Can it be because of Sertraline? Nothing else have changed in life, but I feel like my brain reacts differently to sugar
