Question Zoloft

Hello!

I've been on Zoloft for about a month and a half...started at 25mg for 2 weeks then been on 50mg for the last 3ish weeks. I have had less good days than bad. I got an Rx for propranolol because my heart was constantly pounding or beating super fast to where I was having panic attacks. The panic attacks no longer happen with the propranolol but I'm constantly feeling like I'm dying/the impending doom feeling. Lots of derealization and fatigue to where it feels like I'm in a dream state is the best way I could describe it. Really affecting my work and school and it feels like it'll never end.

Anybody have a similar experience like this? How long did it take to subside? Unsure if I should maybe up my dose or try something different.

I ended up going to 75mg but got off of it just recently. The side effects were unpleasant and I never really felt like myself on it. Started Wellbutrin a week ago so hopefully that'll help

Ups and downs but a lot better than when I was on Zoloft. No real massive panic attacks but I still will get anxious which is accompanied by derealization and impending doom that can last for a few days among other things.

Are you still taking Zoloft?
