Anyone switched directly from Prozac 20 mg to Zoloft without a washout period? That’s what my doctor has suggested but I am terrified.

Been on Zoloft for a total of 8.5 weeks and 6.5 weeks on 100mg…I tirated fast bc 100mg worked well for me before…I have just noticed some reduction in my physical anxiety but my mornings and evenings are still really hard and I still have my existential hyper awareness and baseline anxiety… I got back on Zoloft fast too bc I started having panic attacks again after being perfectly happy , healthy so I don’t have a lot of negative or depression thinking to create new pathways for…..Has anyone only felt slightly better at the the 6.5 week mark but felt major improvement as the moved into week 7-8?? I really have not had one “normal day yet” … is this normal? Can I still have hope that the 100mg dose is still kicking in?

Depression Struggles even on meds.

I feel like sertraline isn’t entirely helping me. I still feel empty and shit (I’ve been for almost a year on this SSRI). This is so frustrating. And I’m before my period and if it’ll pass once it finishes, it’ll feel so invalidating. I hate having hashimotos, being a woman, and having chemical imbalance. I wish i felt okay and happy with everything. But ive gone down the rabbit hole and i don’t even see the point in waking up. But i still do. I do it for my parents. IF i had a choice i wouldn’t like to be here. It saddens me but also frustrates. I’m just tired. Yeah i sleep 8 hours everyday and i try to take care of myself and i meet up with friends and i try new things every time but it all feels pointless and depressing. This system and life isn’t for me, but I’m still pushing through and trying to make my mom happy. Wish i never had this brain wish i was neurotypical and healthy. Sertraline feels like a bitch. I’m always empty at the end of the day. And it’s not like everything around me is devastating or making me crash out (anymore, maybe that’s a good sign), but it just makes me feel truly nothing. I feel like complete shit. I don’t hate anything. But i also don’t love anything. I feel like a ghost or just— idk, a walking bag of meat. You know? It’s just sooo frustrating. Does anyone know why this happens actually? When you do everything right but at the end of the day you’re still your fucked up you.

Discussion Ever since I stopped taking my SSRI medication for anxiety, depression, and panic attacks, I have felt like drinking red wine as the withdrawal symptoms.

Does anyone else feel this way, or is it just me?

Side Effects After quitting ssri is it normal to ejaculate super fast? How long does it take for this to calm down?
