I couldn't tolerate Zoloft, but I know others who have done very well with it. The key with nearly all of these meds is to start with a very small amount, see how you react, and work up gradually. Don't let doctors move you to a high dose quickly, and if your reaction is negative after a decent trial, insist on moving on to another med. There are so many treatments out there that you're bound to find a med (or combination) that works for you -- it may just take some time. But, it's definitely worth the trial and error.
