Has anyone else experienced severely itchy skin without a rash after taking SSRI's? About to claw my upper arm off & read it could be the zoloft I'm on. I've been taking it since May & it started off mildly but now it's intense. I'm very discouraged as the zoloft has helped my depression.

I have not but I've heard of that. I do take Niacin which is essentially vitamin B and it makes me very itchy without any rash, particularly my hands and arms, about 15 minutes after I take it. It goes away in about 30 minutes. Strange things is, I sort of enjoy it. It's very satisfying scratching my hands and arms.
I was on Zoloft for about 20 years and never had any reaction as you describe.
About a year ago I started to get some depression symptoms back and am now on Paxil and Wellbutrin... seem improved.
My understanding, through medical advice, is that any antidepressants eventually wear off.
Be better.
