Last night I had the most scary thoughts I've ever had in my life. It's not like me to have this kind of thought distortion, but I started Zoloft a few weeks ago, and started having memory and cognitive problems about a week ago. The thoughts creeped up me pretty suddenly, and I couldn't tell for sure if they were real or not.
I had my husband throw away the Zoloft and made him stay with me. I tried to get to sleep, but had trouble closing my eyes because the thoughts and visions in my head were so frightening. I felt like I needed someone to grab me by the arms, look me in the eyes, and tell me it wasn't real and I was going to be okay.
I'm afraid to tell my pdoc - will it sound like I have some underlying psychosis - or will he attribute it to the Zoloft? I've had trouble with the SSRI's before. How do I tell him w/o giving him the details? What if he asks for details? I don't want to tell him!
