Hi!I was able to be SSRI free for a couple of months, but I then had a hard time with anger flare-ups..nothing scary..just not normally like me..so we added 50 mg. of Zoloft back with my modafinil and that seemed to settle that down and then I still take night meds for sleep.
I've tried a lot of different meds and always seem to get something (sometimes not much) out of Zoloft.
I hope you and your doctor can find a combo that can help.
I like to think now that I don't fail med trials, as it always sounds to me like I didn't try hard enough and found myself blaming myself for not being tougher. I say now that (insert med) wasn't a good fit for my brain. I don't blame myself and I don't blame the drug.
Peace..Justy
