Hey guys new here

I have been on Zoloft for 5 weeks now.. I am feeling quite a bit better but have 2 weird side effects. My legs twitch, not big twitches, just little ones and I feel shaky inside and in my hands.. When I put mascara on , my hands slightly shake. I know it may take 8-12 weeks before the medication gets to be a steady state in your body, does that mean you can have side effects still at 5 weeks and they can go away? Has any one had these issues and did they go away? I am doing so good on zoloft I dont want to change it...Thank you in advance for your advice

magnesium seems to help. Try 400 mg per day before bedtime. It has helped me. Best way to do it is to consult your GP and he may recommend something more effective.
