25mg zoloft today. considering once i was at 200mg, i imagine a little toe or maybe part of a kidney is starting to feel happy. up to 100mg after a month, which will do little, so i'll probably continue to be my not all that peppy self for some time. silly doctors. they should just advise me then fill out the prescription i prescribe. but then i might have to do exercise and suchlike, so maybe it's better that they're in charge.

Has your doctor thought about augmenting the Zoloft with small doses of T4 [thyroxine]?

Sometimes, this works - especially if your thyroid levels are a bit off. Have you had them checked lately?

I know - the nurse with the questions again ;)

from 200mg to 25mg. That's a progress i would say. That should make your entire legg happy instead of just your little toe.

I ate 25mg of Z a day for about 2 years, which cracked the unfaltering gloom and kept me in one piece for a bit. Then I decided I needed my emotions to be unfiltered if I was going to hack out the root of the rot inside.

Most days, I think I did the right thing. Some days I wish I was still safely wrapped in medicine, wish that even one little toe was happy.
