She Said – It’s the Zoloft, I swear
August 5, 2008
Yesterday he wasn’t himself. After doing really well for a while now, he’s been on a steady decline. yesterday he could barely get out of bed, was sweaty and shaky and anxious and hadn’t slept. He was altered. As altered as if he had been drinking. (He had not.) He even said he just didn’t feel like himself.
“It’s the Zoloft honey, I swear.”
“No, it’s not.”
And I could see the internal dialog. “I suck, I’m weak, I’m pathetic, I can’t even gt out of bed.”

There are a lot of different SSRI’s out there. Sometimes it takes trying a few different ones until you find the one that will work for him.
Don’t think of it as “steam-rolling” his therapy he just needs to try something else.
It took a few different SRRI’s for me til I found the one that worked with my brain chemistry.
There is hope…you just have to keep at it.
Talk to the therapist and try a new approach.
