Have you finally finished tapering off the Velfax? Or are you still in the thick of it? Once you make the jump over to the Zoloft, I’d suggest starting slow—maybe just a quarter dose every three or four days—until you eventually hit that 75mg mark. If things get a little bumpy with side effects, just reach for an anxiolytic like Xanax or whatever else you have on hand... that should help everything settle down quickly, though you might get lucky and skip the side effects entirely! Personally, I never had any issues with Zoloft even when I was up at 5 mg; it really worked wonders for my anxiety.
