Will Zoloft work for 2nd time?

[signs09]

Hello, i've been prescribed Zoloft for 2nd time, for Bipolar depression. I'm also taking 3x450mg lithium, 5mg olanzapine, 15mg mirtazapine.

1st time I took Zoloft, it worked wonders. I was sociable, there was no anhedonia, there were no sexual side effects, altough it made me tired, but taking short nap helped.

What do you think?

What a cocktail of drugs they have you on I don't see how zoloft aka sertraline can.help bipolar depression bc it is sertrogenic - serotonin prevents mania but too much causes depression

I took Zoloft for 4 years and stopped nearly three months ago and I just started back on it a month ago and I can say that it does work again. However, I’m still dealing with slight anxiety but nowhere near what I was. I’m sleeping a lot better and my mood has been lifted! Everyone is different though but I suggest you try to give it 3 months to decide! Zoloft works wonders.

Oh and to beat the drowsiness, I had b13 acupuncture’s that last forever or you could just use a supplement
