We all have days when we are sad, lonely, frustrated, anxious or simply depressed. Then sun comes out again and we are back with a bang. But what to do when you find that you are no longer feeling happy and you don’t remember the last time you were truly, really laughing your heart out. You know, it might be that sucking monster, depression at work. But the question is that do you want to be a sitting duck, let it win and dry up whatever happiness you feel? No, obviously no. So what should you do? Take charge of your life. Decide and resolve that no matter how bad state you are in today, you will not end up taking permanent residence here. You will fight your way out. Swear that you will smile and laugh again, that you will enjoy life again. Done and done and done. Decided, resolved and swore on my life. Now what? Now get out of that bed, take an appointment and go meet a psychiatrist. You know, asking for help is neither bad nor weakness. A doctor will assess your situation and probably prescribe you an anxiety relief medication. There is very high probability that it will be Zoloft. I am saying this because Zoloft is the most prescribed anti depressant.
Now what is this Zoloft? It belongs to the family of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor. These drugs are used to treat depression in adults. It is also used to treat anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder and post traumatic stress disorder etc. in both adult and children. It is a relatively safe drug. But combining it with other can make it lethal. So please remember to inform your doctor about any medication you are on. And specifically remember if you are taking medication for any of these diseases like liver or kidney problem, bipolar disorder, seizures or epilepsy or a history of drug abuse or suicidal thoughts. As in case of most of the drugs, Zoloft also has some side effects. Some of the side effects can be nausea, dry mouth, feeling suicidal in early days of medication, loss of sleep, lack of sexual desire or diarrhea. But except that, this drug helps a lot in treating depression.
The medication must be taken as prescribed by your doctor and in same dosage. It is generally taken with water. Try to take your medication at same time of every day. Don’t stop taking your meds suddenly. If you have to stop, withdraw gradually. Again, consult your doctor beforehand about this. Best of luck in your fight against depression!
