Guest guest Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Hello I am very happy to be here. I have been on Zoloft 150 mgs for 8 years. My doctor and I decided that it is time to slowly withdraw from it now. Where I live Zoloft only comes in 100, 50, and 25 mgs....so every four months I lower the Zoloft 25 mgs at a time. (is this too long in between lowering). Lowering to 125 was okay, but I am finding now that I am on 100 mgs....I am experiencing aching bones, light headedness, low feelings (which is not clinical depression) lethargic. The aching bones is the one that bothers me the most....Is this one of the withdrawal symptoms. Like most people who have been on antidepressants it is scary to decide to go off them... I am glad I found you....and looking forward to your encouragement and courage to keep on. Divalee Keep a song in your heart, even though at times it is but a whisper.
