I'm on my second time being on Zoloft, but I've had a hard time with it. 50mg for 2 weeks then upped to 75mg and been on that for 8 days. When I upped to 75mg it has made me feel depressed and I wasn't depressed before. Went to my doctor today and he wants me to switch to Prozac. I'm very nervous about doing it, I'm already in a fragile state of mind and don't want to make things worse. Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences with switching or Prozac? Will I experience withdrawals from zoloft? Side effects from Prozac? Should I give the zoloft more time? Just really don't know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated!!
