03 Nov 2014 Zoloft is amazing for panic disorder and anxiety! Although it will take 2 to 4 weeks to work, but it is worth it. Might feel worse the first two weeks. It even keeps my heart rate at a normal pace, without it I have severe tachycardia. Only complaint is daytime fatigue, but that is better than daily panic attacks. Best dosage I've found that works is 100mg daily.
