So I just started taking Zoloft 50 mg 4 weeks ago and I started of with just a little nausea but it went away..it is now week 4 and it just started to work but I started to get worse side effects, I constantly feel tired and dizzy, and unbalanced when I walk. I keep sweating and my hands and feet are clammy and cold I also feel like I can't think clearly anymore and my mind is just off and I feel like I have some horrible disease that I don't know about, my doc said to just stick with it but I feel so horrible idk if I can can deal with it. Is this normal? Will it go away?? Should I stop taking this??

    I've been on them for 7 months now the side effects will go away as I had them all as well. I was put on them for depression and anxiety an they have definitely helped so try to stick with them as it takes a few wks for the side affects to leave you..gd luck
