Holy cow! Just when you think you are alone in all of this or just losing your marbles you type in "Zoloft Withdrawal" on the search engine...I took Zoloft during my last pregnancy as that was the only drug that was ok'd for use during pregnancy. After birth, I switched to Celexa and didn't have withdrawal that I recall. A couple months ago and pregnant again, I got on 50 mg of Zoloft. Then a week ago, a perinatologist said a new study was showing babies having withdrawal symptoms after birth. Can you imagine newborns suffering what you all have just described?! So I cut back to 25mg for two days then forgot to take them and just left off for good. So it has been less than a week, but I have cried about every day, thrown up with regularity and felt suicidal. Add that to being 7 months pregnant and I have been going out of my mind. Maybe I will go back or maybe I won't. I really don't want to put my newborn through this. I suppose he already is to some degree. I will definitely share this information with others. You have no idea what support this site has been to me.
