HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Zoloft is used for depression and anxiety mainly though there are other uses.

If you are using it for depression and taking it intermittently then the depression is not be well treated.
Depression can be associated with fatigue and a desire to lay around.

This means that the intermittent use of the zoloft- causing inadequate depression treatment- causing symptoms.
It is best to use it consistently as prescribed.

I hope this helps
