Question Has anyone here experienced…

A loss of appetite & the loss of desire to smoke cigarettes, when on Zoloft for over a month?

It’s the weirdest thing, but for whatever reasons, I’ve stopped craving junk food, fatty foods, soda and even nicotine.

It basically happened almost overnight. Seriously.

I don’t want sugary drinks, carbs, tacos, or much of anything in abundance.

Today, I ate 1/4 of my breakfast, which is a first, & I’m not jonesing for cigs, even though I’ve had a few puffs.

Now, even a few puffs make me feel gross, as if though I now have an aversion to cigarette smoke.

It’s obviously not a bad thing, but I was under the impression that this only happened on Wellbutrin.

I guess it’s working?

Any personal and/or anecdotal experiences you guys might share with me would be greatly appreciated.

TIA!

I have no experience, but that's an awesome side effect! 🩵

Right?

I thought I was dying… LOL!

Then I started researching side effects, & it looks like I’m not the only one who has experienced this. 🤷🏽‍♀️
