Off my meds

catsndreams · Jun 7, 2005

Please excuse any words of behavior I exhibit for the next couple of days. I am out of my zoloft and won't be able to get it refilled in a couple days out joy

. Just letting you all know in advance im not trying to seek attention or anything just sort of a public service announcement. When off my zoloft i am mean and depressed at times im trying to think of happy things at the moment lol.

I understand.

I won't hold anything against you.

You really shouldn't go for a few days without it though... you'll start having withdrawal symptoms. Perhaps you could have a few refills lined up the next time you visit your doc...

Thanks for the heads-up. I promise not to take anything personally.

Hope you get back on track soon.

Just an idea for you, I take psych meds as well. Ask your P-doc for a sample package or two of Zoloft so you don't run out between perscriptions. Hang in there.

I agree with the other posts. Not good to go off your meds for a few days. Call your doc for a sample pack if $ is the issue. Depending on your dose, you may have some serious side effects from stopping cold turkey, not to mention risking a recurrence of your depression!

So sorry you are in this situation! I certainly hope you are able to obtain your medication soon, it's just no good at all to suddenly discontinue your Zoloft.

Keep with the happy thoughts

but make sure you get some more medication soon - I know it takes some time to leave your system but I also know that suddenly stopping your medication is not wise

PERFECT IDEA!!!!!!!!!

I wish I had thought of that when I was taking Zoloft. :

Thanks!

You just reminded me that I have to pick up my Zoloft this afternoon. I put in the refill order last week and just forgot about it.

I agree with the others. Call your doctor and see if you can make some sort of interim arrangement to get it. My mother-in-law stopped taking her Zoloft for a week or so about a year ago and it made her really sick. She ended up having to go to the hospital.

be careful...

Hope you get your refill soon. I know what a trouble it is to get it. I agree with getting samples. also if your doc has an after hours answering service, the OC should be able to call it in for you. I should know. I work for a service
