what this is for?) >>

To just hanging, I am a librarian and I cannot let a reference question

go by. So...to answer your question, Zoloft is used used primarily for

depression. It affects chemicals in your brain that may become

unbalanced and cause depression, panic or anxiety, or obsessive or

compulsive symptoms. It is also used to treat post traumatic stress

syndrome. (summarized from the Complete Guide to Prescription and

Nonprescription Drugs 2002) There are some off label uses, so why don't

you ask your doctor why this prescribed for you? I guess I am surprised

that you doctor didn't make that clear to you.
