I am new on Zoloft. I am on it for generalize anxiety and am taking 25 mg. I have been taking it for about 6 weeks. Over the last 2-3 weeks I have had increasing muscular and joint pain. It is like a dull ache all the time. Has anyone had this before? If so, is it just my body getting used to the medication or is it just not the right medication for me.

In addition, I don't sleep very deeply or very well, but I am tired all the time.

I have felt an improvement in my stress level. I don't feel like you have to peel me off the ceiling all the time and I can concentrate better, but the side effects are making me question if I really want to be taking this.

TIA
