Hello to you all.

I finally asked for a mood stabilizing medication after 4 years of

trying to just do talk therapy

for the anxiety that the depression causes about my disease (NSIP)

Well, the psychologist told me to talk to the pulmodude and he told me

to talk

to my GP. So, after all this talking...I was prescribed a very low

dose of

Zoloft ( 25mg nightly) that's about 1/10th the normal dose. The GP did

this because

he is so aware of my other medications and my sensitivity to many

drugs. Well..after just 2 days

my GI system is in an uproar, I'm lightheaded and not happy!!!

Supposedly the GI side effects calm down after a week...can't wait a

week!

Zoloft itself doesn't really start to have any effect for several

weeks...so now what?

I have a call into the GP..I'm planning on not taking the Zoloft again.

I have things to do

We're busy this week-end...I want to be OK.

I've just read about Zoloft on line and the side effects are comon but

eventually subside!!!

I really don't have the time to feel so lousy waiting for the benefits!

Your suggestions would really be appreciated.

I can't leave home...the GI stuff keeps me very near the ladies room!

I just want to feel more like "Me"
