I want to shift from fluoxetine 20 mg to zoloft 50 mg. So it will reduce so much sleeping and lower my porn addiction. But zoloft will bring diarrhea can I do? I tried fluovaximine earlier but it causes lot of sleeping. Because I am student I have to read without drowsiness.

Dear lybrate-user, none of these ssris causes drowsiness. There could be other causes for your drowsiness. It could be your porn addiction itself. If it is so, you need more dose of fluoxetine or zoloft or fluoxamine after 2-3 weeks of trying 20 mg. Zoloft rarely causes diarrhea. Again, only 50 mg may not be enough. Follow up with your psychiatrist who knows you are student.
