Zoloft increase after almost 20 years

I have GAD and have been on 100mg of Zoloft since 2004, I’ve had a recent episode with anxiety brought on by the birth of my first child. Has anyone else felt side effects when increasing just 25mg of Zoloft to 125mg total? My stomach is queasy and I feel like my anxiety has spiked a bit. It’s been a week.

I had Zoloft for a few months but I notice that it made my stomach feel weird and had to go use the restroom more often. Unfortunately, I dont have a gallbladder which also is part of the problem. I stopped it after a few months and im ok again as long as I dont eat too much fat.

I was on Zoloft for about 10 years,75mg.doing well but about 6 years ago all the anxiety and depression came back after a divorce. I was increased to 100 mg,nausea for about2 weeks,gradually decreased. I remember when I first started my doctor started me low and with each increase had nausea for about a week.was told this normal.hag in there!

Yes, same experience here and the side effects went away about 2-3 weeks after the increase. Mine was also after having a baby 🙃. Went from 100-150 mg so that was a huge bump. It was still well worth all the side effects. Zoloft is a life saver. Hang in there and remember to go easy on yourself. We are here for you
