Following. I'm going to start taking them today

Yes but I only took mine for 3 days. I didn’t like it because I felt like a zombie.

I’ve been on Zoloft for a few years & my dosage increased after I had my first baby because my PPD was really bad (and there were a few other things that made it worse). My side effects were minimal, but I had been on a different antidepressant before that. Honestly, increasing my dosage helped me just get over the slump I was in. It’s super safe for breastfeeding & it’s the only one that’s been studied the most on pregnant & breastfeeding women. If you’re nervous about starting it, go on the lowest dose possible & if you don’t experience any side effects & think you need to up the dosage, talk to your doctor. Just keep in mind that it’ll take about a month before you notice if the meds are working, as your body has to get used to them
