Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Zoloft is an SSRI and the moment you start this medication there is a serotonin boost in the body. It may cause this confusional state in some but over a period of timeif you are tolerating the side-effect then there is no need to worry.
However I fail to understand why does it happen this often that you have to restart the medicine. It is not one of the wise things that you should be doing. Its always wise to stick to your medicines regularly.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
