This is the medication that really helped me. Yes the jittery feeling does leave. the Ativan should help with that.

After months on Zoloft and CBT I am now off of all meds. I don;t know what the future holds but for right now I doing great.

If I ever need to go back on meds. Zoloft will be it.

Give some time and think positive. Try to think of that jittery feeling as energy. Sometimes we get the two confused.

Good luck!

thank you I feel better knowing it will pass....you know how you start to think when yoyr mind goes wondering. I am taking day by day...trying to do what i usually do and make believe I don't feel the shakiness. Its alittle tough being a hairdresser...one slip...but so far i have had it under control

What dose are you on? What time of day do you take it?
