Has anyone been on Zoloft, weaned off, and tried any natural alternative that has helped.??? I've been researching on a few like St. Johns Wort, Kava-Kava, HTP-5 (tryptopan) ans SAM-e. I've gained 14 lbs. in the 5 months I've been on Zoloft (finding many others with weight gain to and with ZOloft, Paxil, Prozac.) So, I will be seeing my dr. about maybe going off Zoloft, as to what to expect (effects) going off Zoloft and when to incorporate a safer more natural slternative. I have anxiety and depression do to menopausal symptoms (hormone related, which is being addressed too). Thanks so much, hope someone can respond.
