unable to cry

I went to my doctor with a couple of different problems,pmt making life hell and constantly emotional,she put me on 50 then 100 as experiencing sudden panic now that's frightening,ive found instead of being emotional I'm zombie like with things still whirling around in my head when I'm alone and i can just sit or lie like that for hours,i cannot cry but want to,the medication must prevent me but I'm feeling thats not a good the either ,any similar experience?thanks

however,if it has been a while then maybe go back to the dr and get your dosage reduced to 75? Or at least speak to her about your new feelings. Hope it works out for you.

there are many, many discussion strands on here about sertraline, Zoloft etc I know it made me feel less hopeless and alone realising there are so many of us out there working together! Best wishes to you and really hope it helps you long term.

Yes there are some wonderfully supportive people here, all that have the same/similar problems so easy to speak of things one wouldn't normally be able to discuss easily.

Yes it's difficult to talk to family and friends as they don't understand and it would upset them and burden them which I'd hate,no one wants to show weakness to people who are close

I was on sertaline/Zoloft for many years. Although it helped with my anxiety and depression, it also made me emotionally numb. Never happy, never sad, just there. I stopped taking it, and all my emotions came back, I felt human again. There's good and bad things about being on Zoloft, but there's also good and bad things about being off of it, especially the return of anxiety and panic attacks.
