I take it as well!. Yes, if you miss doses frequently or more then a day then you can get a nasty feeling with the side effects of instant withdrawal!. Everyone is different, i forgot to take it 3 days one time and i felt terrible but there is a reason, its not meant to be stopped just like that!. usually when you get off the medicine the doctor limits your intake slowly and gradually, instant reduction leads to those nasty effects!. Doctors tell me to take my missed dose as soon as I can but don't overdose, dont take more then one pill to add up for the days you missed, just take the next dose when you can as you would on a regular basis!.
If your symptoms still feel like they are worsening , or you feel run down, and etc, then definitly talk to your doctor!. It is better to resolve the situation as soon as you can by advice of a doctor, only they can help you even more!. They can run lab work as well to make sure everything is good to go!. Hope everything works out good for you!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you are back on your normal medication schedule, the withdrawl symptoms should disappear in the next day or two!. If you are still experiencing symptoms two days from now, contact your physician, but it is very unlikely that you will still be having problems then!. The best thing to do for these symptoms are to take it easy and REST until they go away!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i think u should see a doctor!. or try not takin the pills and think that ur anxiety is gone!. stuff like dat is mind over matter!. i used to have anxiety but i fought it!. i didnt want to go on meds cause i didnt wanna feel i was weak in the head!. stuff like zoloft is bad ecspecially the after affects thats y u had headaches n vomitting!. thats telling u u are dependent on zoloft that means ud have to take it forever!. anxiety can be cured its not like a disease where u could only treat it!. u should see a psychiatrist and exercise your mindWww@Answer-Health@Com
