I take a vitamin supplement every day. Nature's Code for Women Over 50 (I'm 47 but I figured I'd get a head start..!). It's got all the B vitamins in it.

I did a google search and found many articles relating teeth clenching to Zoloft. Also listed was Prozac. I don't think it's going to be an option for me to stop taking Zoloft so I'll invest in a night guard and be very mindful of when I'm clenching during the day.

I've just noticed this within the past year or so....but I guess the stress of losing my job, waiting for LTD (and SSDI eventually) and other things that have happened within the past 6 months are just catching up with me.

Thanks for your suggestions - I appreciate all the responses very much.
