ZOLOFT

Zoloft is in my opinion a wonder drug; I don’t even know what the technical name for it is, or EVEN if it has one. At first, I just thot of it as another one of the many drugs I had to take as part of my regimen of daily drugs I had to take, but, I managed to quit taking all of those other drugs. And I thot, I’D be able to quit taking ZOLOFT also. Was I ever wrong, I mean since, I don’t really need an antidepressant anymore, I thot I’D be able to just quit taking it. And I was correct about one thing. I don’t need an antidepressant any longer, but, ZOLOFT is more than just that it, well, keeps me balanced. Here is an excerpt from a letter I wrote to my parents that sort of sums up my feelings about ZOLOFT: DEAR Oh, and did I tell you

I had quit the ZOLOFT for only about two whole days. And I guess that's all I could

Stand. For a drug, which doesn't really do anything to you, I sure noticed when I wasn't

Taking it, because I started getting really, not only light headed, but, downright dizzy, or

downleft dizzy, I'M not sure, but, I was just getting really dizzy. And I went back on the

stuff last night and within about a half hour, I could feel the difference. I really could. I

didn't think I'D be able to tell, but, I really, really could. Well, I'M back on it now, and

everything's back to normal. It was a rather strange experience, being off the ZOLOFT

Temporarily, because during those two whole days, I think I went thru some brain

Storming, or at least, some strange dreams where I had these very vivid dreams that I was

Wrestling CHARLIE, or maybe it was me, from back in eighth grade, but, whoever it was

I definitely got out of breath just like I used to back in eighth grade. Let’s me just say it

Was strange, and the whole time, I could feel BARB in bed next to me, but, when I asked

Her if she ever felt anything she said no. So I don't know what to make of that other than

The fact that it was sure strange, and also, I woke up, went back to sleep and I guess the

Match wasn't over because I started again. Strange. I think I'LL, maybe write a little

thing on ZOLOFT. Because I think it's a pretty good drug for TBI survivors. I don't

know about any other needs for it, but, it sure seems to keep me balanced. Balanced

that's really the only single word I can describe what it does for anybody.

Ok, that’s my little thing on ZOLOFT, I’M not getting any kickbacks from the makers of ZOLOFT, I just really feel it’s a good drug for TBI survivors. But, don’t take my word for it, it does have some side effects, which some people probably won’t like, and I have experienced some of them, mostly the sexual dysfunction side effect, meaning it takes forever to achieve a climax IF at all. But, in some ways this one of the good side effects. Another not so good side effect, is it causes chest pains, which I’VE felt also. Sort of mimicking ANGINA I would think. So if you’r a heart patient, or if you’ve ever had heart problems like ANGINA PECTORALIS don’t take ZOLOFT. You could be fooled into thinking you’re having a heart attack. So ZOLOFT would not be a good drug as an antidepressant for post heart attack survivors . And you know it’s probably sometimes, mistakenly given as an antidepressant to people who suffer deppression from just having had a heart attack. Well, there’s my review on ZOLOFT . I’M not by any means recommending it, but I only know it works for me.
