I think you might really like Holy Basil(New Chapter is the best IMO).
Look at one of the new threads below, I made a post listing things good for anxiety/stress/restless mind.
Staying on an SSRI that works well for you is not a big deal. Plus, Zoloft is not as toxic and hard on the liver as other SSRIs. And, it inhibits mTOR signalling, something that might be good for cancer prevention and longevity! If Zoloft ends up making a significant positive impact at a dose that does not cause bothersome side effects, I would just accept that you may need it for the rest of your life. It and a few others are very good non-invasive drugs that you can stay on for a very long time. Chronic anxiety can do a lot more damage than drugs like Zoloft could ever do, at least for most people. Sure there are some that do not do well with many medications, but if you are not one of those people, you are probably better off with it than without it in the long run.
