    Oh sure! I’m taking 150 mg Setraline, which is a generic brand of Zoloft. I did have insurance troubles a few months back and ran out, which wasn’t fun but no pain. I just got to show my new girlfriend how anxious,
    catastrophizing and lethargic I was before we met.🙄🎉

    I also use Mirtazapine to help me sleep, (because at night is when I rue and obsess over problems) and take Hydroxyzine as needed when I am feeling anxious. The only side effect I have is that most tend to make me sleepy, BUT since I permanently exist with coffee in my hand it’s manageable.

    I do feel for ya thou, I’m the lucky one in my family. Both my sisters took a year or two to find medication that works for them and Serta was only my second. And a old old old GF did have a sertonine crash when she trying meds. It’s often a tough journey, but I can say that all 4 of us are doing much better overall once we found the right meds. I hope this helps!
