Zoloft Questions
Has anyone been prescribed Zoloft for ocd? Has it been helpful? Hope soon did you see results - improved mood and less anxiety.

Hi! I have been on zoloft/sertraline consistent for 14 years. I believe it has helped me tremendously over the years, at about 23/24 yo, I wanted to stop all meds, but soon found out I did need the crutch/help, and it's just been a part of my morning routine since.

I was put on it when I was ten and was on it for a few years. I remember it helping my ocd a lot! I felt less anxious and rarely had any compulsions. I’m thinking of going back on it because my ocd went back to terrible after I got off of it. I should add though, I did hallucinate my face melting just-one time when I was around 13. Only time I’ve ever hallucinated in my life but I don’t know if that was the Zoloft or not. I just don’t know what else it could of been from

Medication and SSRIs
hi, I just started taking a low dosage of zoloft(sertraline) for OCD and generalized anxiety and I am on my second day. For anyone who has taken an SSRI or my specific medicine, how long did it take for you to notice a difference?

OCD and Zoloft (Sertraline)
Hi everyone, I’m new to the community. I was diagnosed with OCD just a couple of months ago and have been doing some reading and other research to try and understand the disorder. With this, I have been actively seeing a great therapist who has been helpful to build tools to deal with my intrusive thoughts ( contamination OCD is my worst theme). Do help learn to deal with the compulsions, I start on Sertraline or “Zoloft” I believe since November 2024. Currently I’m on 50mg and have been doing this for just over a month. My question for those who are also taking Sertraline and it has been successful, how do you know it has really provided a benefit and how long did it take to get there? I sometimes feel the medication works, and sometimes I feel it doesn’t (maybe that’s my OCD trying to mess with things). Thanks!

So I have been diagnosed with GAD and OCD and my psychiatrist prescribed me with zoloft 🤔 but I dont know im really hesitant to start medication because im scared of the side effects and ik afraid of relying on a medication for a long time. Does anyone else take zoloft? What is it like? Any side effects?
