Does anyone have experience with Zoloft? My doctor just put me on it for depression and anxiety, but I couldn't get a clear sense from him how long it would take to see effects.
It depends on the individual, as well as on whether the dose is appropriate/high enough. It's not quite like allergy medication (easy to identify when nose stops running), but maybe a bit more retrospective: hmm, I feel less anxious than I did two weeks ago, but maybe not a single moment when you suddenly feel less anxious. If you can't feel any difference after a week or so, it's probably worth contacting the doctor to ask about increasing the dosage (some like to wait two weeks, but that's a loooong time in the middle of a semester), but not to give up on it.
