Please please help! I had taken Zoloft for 7 years when I stopped by tapering over a week and a half 5 weeks ago. I had the same symptoms that I have seen described on the Internet - muscle pain (extreme - I already had osteoarthritis), irritability, "fuzziness", electrical shock-like feelings, etc. I thought I was getting better until I caught a cold/killer sinus infection. After a week of suffering, I went to my doctor for an antibiotic, where I confessed to stopping the Zoloft. She said that I will NEVER feel better (especially the neck and back pain) unless I go back on the Zoloft. Can this be true? I really don't want to go back on the med but at this point I will do anything to stop the pain. Any advice?
