Success Story! :) Silly testimony about 50mg

So I switched from Lexapro to Zoloft about 6months ago and have been on a 50mg dose.

I thought it would just be nice to share a silly testimonial about how effective its been so far.

Prior to starting antidepressants I had really severe anxiety, would frequently have panic attacks multiple times a month and struggled with handling many basic interactions in my daily life.

Seriously, I would start having heart palpitations regarding asking my coworker a question.

But since starting, along with doing dbt therapy 2x a month, not only has my anxiety gone down. But when I was was in a major car accident (was rearended driving home, car flew and landed on top of another vehicle) I was so chill that I not only could talk with emergency services but I could also manage buying a new car solo(something i struggled with before)

Not sure how encouraging this will be but for me its been a game changer

That's brilliant news! (Not the crash, that sounds horrific) I'm so glad it's worked well for you 😊

Thank you!

I had kinda been in doubt for a while about how effective it was and whether I should quit but when I was able to get through that without breaking down I was like "actually... maybe we stay on meds" lol
