As they say around here...'slow but steady like a toad walking' . By the way, if you have never seen a toad walk trust me it is slow. My dad loved those old sayings. I guess I am stuck with them.  lol

Hi Fishinghat, do you think I'm going to fast now?

 

greets Senior

As long as your quality of life is acceptable proceed. Listen to your body.

[Howtostoppropperly]

It is acceptable... the lowering process with zoloft is much easier then with Cymbalta but I know that I have to listen to my body/signals... thanks man!

hi guys,

 

i stopped zoloft now for 4 days and I get little electro chocs in my brain. what should I do?

Get back to 12,5mg zoloft or take some xanax if needed till this stops?

 

cheers

Some times omega 3 help stop those. You might try that.

What dose do you recommend FH?

[fishinghat]

2000 to 3000 and high in EPA and DHA. Try that if it doesn 't work let ,e know.

Long time no see! Doing ok?

Hi Gail,

 

I'm doing Okay... Last year I lowered my Zoloft to fast from 100 till 0. 

I took back off to 50mg... This summer I will lower again till 0 on a very slow pace.

 

Last year I sold my company, bought a house in Spain and this year I'm taking off again with an e-commerce firm in the EU

 

And how are you guys doing?

Gail? Fishinghat?

Hi Stranger!!

 

I am doing fine and about a year away from working on my Zoloft. Any tips on that 'experience'?

 

You have come a long way. I am proud of what you have accomplished.

Hi champ,

 

My recommendations starting from 100mg:

 

100mg to 75mg:
I recommend to have at least 6 weeks time for this first lowering
except of a dry mouth and what fatigue it was pretty easy.

 

75mg to 50mg:

After 6-8 weeks lowering to 50mg

still some fatigue the first 2 weeks

 

50mg to 25mg:

I will post it this summer but my first attempt was to fast for me.

I think to go even slower then 6 weeks

 

I will post a Follow up when I start at my 25mg

 

cheers and heads up guys!!
