Will Zoloft keep me awake?

I've been on Zoloft three weeks. I only seem to get 2 to 3 hours of sleep. Even using lunesta and Xanax occasionally.
My doc prescribed trazodone I've used it only once last night. Barely slept at all. 50 mg. Is my Zoloft dose. I'm so frustrated. Anxiety and depression are much better. But I can't sleep. I don't know if I should stay on it or get off.

I've the same issue. I've been on it two weeks now and only feel "okay" on it now. I've had bouts of insomnia in the past and my doc did warn me of this with Zoloft before I took it. So in the first week I didn't sleep a single minute for three separate nights. But after that, I haven't had trouble sleeping since! I still don't know if it's gonna work with me or not but I think it's worth trying it out for two weeks and see how you get on.

Have had the same effect with a SSRI (Prozac) that I take. Giving it time and will discuss with new P Doc soon.

Hi, sardo! In the literature it states that insomnia affects: *Very common (10% or more): Insomnia (up to 21%)* of users. Fortunately, side effects generally subside within a few days to a week or so.
Zoloft is a very good medication for depression/anxiety though. If it keeps you awake, perhaps your doctor can prescribe a sleep aid to get you through a few nights.
