I have been on Zoloft for about 6 years. It has been an excellent anti-dpressant for me. But......It took a while to find the right dosage and I'm under the care of a med-management doctor. I would not reccommend self-medicating with this drug. Too much or too little is bad. It was origionally prescribed for me for post-partum depression by my OBGYN. Now, I get it from a psychyatrist (sp?). As with any drug like this one (one that you have to take everyday to maintain not one you use as needed) there is a careful balance that needs to be achieved.

Good luck and I hope this helped.
