which is more likely to improve sleep, Zoloft or Effexor?
I am currenlty taking 50mg of Zoloft per day which is great for my anxiety and depression, but causes insomnia.
I had heard that Effexor can help relief the same symptoms, but will not cause insomnia… has anyone experienced it first hand?
I have been on both Zoloft and Effexor, and I had the same problem with both.
It depends how long you have been on the Zoloft, I found that after I took the Zoloft for a while (about 6 months) the insomnia slowly got better over time.
Everyone reacts to these drugs a little differently, you should talk to your doctor about it, he may recommend changing to Effexor.
I know how frustrating this can be, I hope you get it sorted out soon. Good Luck
