Heather,
I had bad D the first several days after starting the Zoloft, and my doctor told me that was normal. It's just your body getting used to having it in your system. Once you adjust to it, the D will stop. And he was right, it did.
As for the sleepiness, I cannot relate to that! It had the opposite effect on me---I was up all night, shaking like I'd had 12 cups of coffee---and that was the first indicator that I had bipolar disorder.
I also craved sweets, which I'd never really cared for before, when taking the Zoloft. I couldn't pass a McDonald's without getting a milkshake. And if there was an open box of cookies or container of icecream in the house, I would devour the entire thing! One day I even ate a whole box of vanilla wafers. .... Yuck, that doesn't even sound good.
