Omg I needed this video! I just started on anti depressants and it totally changed my life ! I feel Like a better mom ! I'm so happy for you! Your story sounds like mine !
I'm so glad that it's working for you too! It's amazing to feel HAPPY again...I swear I was just empty feeling before and my thoughts were fuzzy. Now everything is so clear!
are you still doing fine? also i had a question. does depression always have you in a fight or flight "on edge" feeling and does the meds help that to feel more calm? i feel i got depression after a bout of extreme uncontrollable stress.. thanks ladies
glad to see you are feeling better and getting out the house. dont worry about being put of shape...just keep walking. i started zoloft this week so I hope to see positive results.
Thank you!!!! I needed this so much. I’m starting on it today after desperately searching for something to help. I hope that it works for me like it did you. Being a mama I certainly hope so. Thank you again for this! Hope you start making videos again soon!! I’d love to get in touch with you and have a support system. I’m going to start making videos again soon, too. Hope to see you soon. Thank you again xoxo
im so pleased that you are feeling great.Ive been on zoloft for 2 weeks and starting to feel the difference already take care and by the way lovely children you have there jeff
I’m actually not, there’s been a lot of issues since that video. And I was taken off of Zoloft in January for suicidal thoughts. Everyone has something different that works for them, so I hope this does it for you!
Fake It Till You Make It Mom : That’s rare but it can happen. I’m sorry it didn’t work for you and I hope you find another medication that does. All the best
I really needed this video! I just opened up to my family about my postpartum depression. I am going to see a doctor and therapist today. They've plan on starting me on medication.
Hi girl, just wanted to say I'm so thankful to you for making this video and putting it out there. I really needed this right now. And I'm so happy to know it's working for you. Much love to you and your fam!!! 😊💜💜💜
Serotonin is an ancient form of chemical communicator found in big chunk of life forms involving plants, animals and algae. They have myriad functions. Humans till now never achieved a clarity on how these systems works. Simply stopping reuptake and making available more serotonin is foolishness. The compounded effect of that on interconnected systems cannot be predicted. Many of those are permanent dysfunctions. SSRIs are utter rubbish. Modern medicine is increasingly put forwarding many hypothesis' akin to physicists, but that approach will not work with complicated still unexplored systems like brain and cns. Humans first should study more about brain and cns, then things will become more clearer. Anyway this is not the right time to market a drug like SSRIs.
wow, what a charming person you are, you come across as someone who has faced life head on and are winning. Thank you for your review and do more videos, you are super positive :)
Zoloft is also called sertraline. I also take sertraline 200mg per day. I've been taken them for 2+ years and I also find them very helpful. Thank you for yr open, honest and brave video. I hope everything continues to be on the up for you and yr little family xx take care and keep up the good work x
You seem to be a very nice girl and I can tell with your ease of narration now that the Zoloft has really helped you. I started on 50mg. a month ago and now am up to 100mg. for a week now and see only slight difference in the way I feel. I am hopeful that I am not feeling the total effects of it yet. Thank you for making this video. It takes a lot of courage to do that and I can plainly see how ithas helped you. After the thousands of video's I've seen on you tube this is the first one I have commented on. THAT must make you feel even better. To "inspire" an old guy (60 years old) like me is quite an accomplishment. I sincerely hope that you are still doing fantastic and that your life is as good as you wish it to be. Take care through life and enjoy those little one's. They are grown before you know it.
So happy for you... you can just tell how truly happy you are! I am on day 6 on zoloft and this video gives me hope! Thank you! I wish you all the luck and happiness on your journey!
@@ratchel2374 Good so far, the first couple of days I felt unwell for periods of time. But nothing unbearable. Possibly starting to feel some benefits but it's too soon to say really. Day 10 😊 I take mine on an evening. Hope they work for you x
I'm about to start it today an I'm so excited just by looking at this. I'm a new mom an my man has been sticking through this but I don't want him to be effected by me, an this just gives me hope🙏🏽
I see the psychiatrist next month I believe. Every time I look up my symptoms with depression and anxiety and stuff like that. Zoloft always comes back so maybe I’ll get on that. I’m on the fence about taking medications. But certain videos like yours. Is definitely giving me high hopes. I am glad that you are doing well!
@@Frobe8 I see the nurse practitioner May 25th. The old one left the day before I was supposed to see him. So I had to reschedule but I will come back to this comment in a couple weeks. I’ll let you know what medication I get, my diagnosis and if it works.
if anyone thinks zoloft or medications are clutch, they are mistaken. it does not work for everyone it can sometimes makes things worse for others, so it is not a magic pill. people need to stop acting as if it is and let others use what helps them . great video. really inspiring
I got prescribed Zoloft 2 days ago and picked it up but am terrified to take anything because I am also in pain meds for my hip and back. It gives me anxiety just thinking about it. I came on UA-cam to see others reviews. Thanks for your review, so glad you are doing better.
Im 7 weeks pregnant with my third tiny person. I've had depression for over 10 years, and am taking my first dose of zoloft tonight. Im very anxious, and excited. if it works half as well for me as it did for you, ill be great lol.
Let me know how it goes for you! And if you need anyone to talk to for support or even just to vent or help with boredom - let me know! I love texting and chatting on Facebook!
+Fake It Till You Make It Mom I've waffled on taking meds for anxiety/depression/negative cycles and it's so scary bc I don't know how it'll go for me. I have a 3month old and 2yo
Fake It Till You Make It Mom I'd really like that actually... I don't have Facebook or social media with the exception of UA-cam lol. We can work something out! I'm a stay home mom so boredom happens frequently lol
+Brooke McElhaney I was so scared too. But I'm glad I ultimately made the leap. I warned everyone that knows me to monitor me to make sure I wasn't being more moody or irrational.
Hi! I came across your videos and want to say ... thank you for sharing. My son is 4 mo old now and I've been battling PPD the entire time. I also was prescribed zoloft. May I ask - at what time during the day are you taking your medicine?
PLO 8 fucked up because of the Zoloft. It’s poison! Complete poison. If big pharma ever did real research it could easily be demonstrated that it exasperates mental illness exponentially. But there is a lot of money to be made by not telling the truth
Beautiful video. I was just prescribed Zoloft and I'm a male. I read that it could affect your libido. I have general anxiety disorder and I'm very nervous to take it
ive been on mine for 2 weeks and its extremely difficult for me to ejaculate but as time goes on it gets easier its still difficult but its still possible and if you experience this just know it will get better overtime i mean it can take months for it to be fully in my system and im on week 2 already noticing my side effects going away
I have a 4 month old and I suffer from post partum anxiety. I started seeing a therapist and they want me to start Zoloft.. I'm so nervous because I've seen how bad the side effects can get and also how you feel worse before you feel better? I don't think I could handle feeling worse.
I personally never had the drop of feeling worse. I didn't feel any difference at all until I noticed that I was doing so much better. I can totally understand the fear of it getting worse before it gets better. If you need support and someone to talk to you can always contact me! You can email me for my phone number to text if you want! Carissathenerd@gmail.com
can I ask how old you are? I see a lot of myself in you. I'm considering having children in the near future but gotta start that zolloft regimen again cuz I'm in my old slump again.
Audrey Hello :) I have recently started taking Zoloft for about 3 weeks also and I have gained weight. I eat a lot more now, but I think that is due to my food addiction. I believe that with proper exercise and nutrition this can be fixed. I still feel unmotivated, but I have to lose weight soon due to the fact that I feel even more uncomfortable than before. Hope this helps.
Hi I just started zoloft (sertraline) for 3 days now 25mg a day. The reason why im taking it is because of an anxiety disorder and loads of panick attacks. Today im start to feel depressed and have a feeling that this all not gone work or even make it worse its making me very sad. Can someone tell me what to do shall i stop it or stay on it. Much love from holland
+Jt Turner I don't think it gives me energy, but since depression makes most people feel rundown and tired all the time - it has taken away most of those factors

You look pretty without make up. You are a beautiful lady I'm so glad you are feeling better
Thank you for sharing ! It warms my heart to hear your story!
You're beautiful! This made me cry, it reminds me of how much inner peace Zoloft/Prozac brought in my life as well.
Prozac or zoloft ? Best?
How are you now, are you still taking it?
glad to see you are feeling better and getting out the house. dont worry about being put of shape...just keep walking. i started zoloft this week so I hope to see positive results.

Do you still take it ?

Take care it'll get better
You give me hope. I want to get off Lamactil and try Zoloft. So many good reviews about Zoloft.

does the zoloft makes you gain weight? cause for me this and sexual problems (male here) is the reasons i dont wanna take that pill again..

Hi! What dosage we're you given?
i love zoloft
I love this video! So happy for you :)
Thank you so much!
Zoloft was the most commonly prescribed antidepressant in the USA in 2020 with over 38 million prescriptions.
