sadeyesr4ever,
I'm really glad to read you're feeling better. I was taking Zoloft many years ago for a terrible time I was having with constant panic attacks that were even waking me from sleep. This was long before I had internet. Then I did something I knew not to do. I knew not to do it but I did it. I stopped it myself and I was taking a pretty hefty dose. I just got so fed up with some side-effects. I was ill, absolutely ill. The worst symptom I had was almost as if my muscles had ceased up and I could hardly walk let alone all of the other symptoms. Anyway, to cut a long story short, it wasn't until I got the internet and stumbled across information about discontinuing medications when researching things for my children and I became aware of all the information about Antidepressant Discontinuation Syndrome.
