A member asked:
I started weaning myself off voloft. its been 5 weeks off it and im still very anxious and stressed. should it be totally out of my system by now?

It depends.: How long were you on it? What were on it? What were you taking it for? Some people need Zoloft (sertraline) a long time. Some people have to taper much more slowly. Do talk to your doctor about this. Why suffer? Life is tough enough without being anxious and stressed. If a slower taper or continuing on Zoloft (sertraline) works, try it!
