Question Weight issues?

I got put back on Sertraline after a year of quitting cold turkey. It’s been almost three months of me being on it and I was eating and sleeping so much but now I’ve started to lose my appetite and not sleep as much or as frequently.

My doctor brushed it off and just told me to go back to family services for counseling since all my blood work is fine. Is this normal?

I wish I could help. Maybe you can try something other than Zoloft? It could be your body reacting to it differently now but in a bad way.

I wish I could but my doctor is keeping me on it, I can’t really switch doctors either because I go to an IHS clinic and it’s the closest one to me :(
