Can Zoloft cause panic attacks the first week?
I’m on day 2 of Zoloft for anxiety and depression and I had a bad panic attack today. I read somewhere that antidepressants make you feel worse at first then it gets better. Is that true?
Hey, I understand how you feel…
The uncomfortable symptoms like sweaty palms, "jelly" legs, extreme alertness, "impending doom" feeling and the fight-or-flight response.
I’ve been there. I’m an ex-victim. Sometimes the deep breathing or distraction techniques doesn’t work – a full-blown panic or anxiety attack happens later.
Sometimes you experience panic attack out of the blue and such.
Do NOT buy Panic Away, Linden Method, EasyCalm or the Panic Puzzle. They do NOT work – I’ve tried them and their solutions are similar – it DOESN’T WORK.
Medications do NOT work – I was under many antidepressants (Prozac, Lexapro, Paxil and Zoloft) and anti-anxiety medications (Ativan, Klonopin, and Xanax) but my condition was the same – no improvement at all.
The only program that really work is The Panic Attack Solution. It’s found by an ex-victim. You can check out his old blog in his official website to read up some useful tips.
But the package is the best – it teaches 17 powerful techniques and the real solution to panic attacks. I’ve bought it and it really helped me – it’s the BEST anti-anxiety package or book I’ve read.
His theory really makes sense and it works effectively!
You will learn why your panic attacks can happen without warning sometimes; why having stimulant causes panic attacks; and many-many other useful tips!

First of all majority of these antidepression take from 7 to 14 days to start helping you, is like they say the pill will not be a miracle cure in one day. have ever had to take an antibiotic? it takes more than one dose to help any infection, the same way with any other med, so hang in there, but if your symptoms are feelin physically ill stop it inmediatly and see your doctor again..

If you’re having panic attacks on Zoloft, you’re taking too much or, you’ve been mis-diagnosed.
