Hi! I’ve been on Zoloft for 7 months now (25mg) and I feel very fine! I am numb but I love it. It is nice to not care too much about stuff I don’t control. I am on this for generalized anxiety disorder and health anxiety (hypochondria).

I tried stopping and at day 6, I felt exactly like before starting Zoloft so I renewed my prescription and I want to take the time to taper off intelligently. 

So, other than some minor panic attacks and being overly reactive / stressed, I describe how anxious me (pre Zoloft and last week post Zoloft state) feels: I feel like I can feel my blood in my veins, a bit like I have jitters from drinking too much coffee. When I am alone at home, I am very anxious and fear heart attacks and other serious health issues and this “feeling my blood in my veins” is unbearable and this is what lead me to Zoloft.

On Zoloft I don’t feel it at all, but I don’t wanna depend on it all life. Any advice is welcome. Does anyone have the same anxiety symptoms? Did you manage to stop Zoloft and NOT have these symptoms anymore? Thanks!! 

Ps. I am okay staying all my life on Zoloft if required
