Sometimes the drowsyness goes away, sometimes it doesnt. A lot of antidepressants make you drowsy (I take mine at bed time too). I havent specifically been on zoloft, but I've been on a lot of different meds with mixed results. Unfortunately it usually takes 3 weeks before you see any real difference in symptoms. I hope it will help you.

well so far so good, ive taken it at night and it makes me super drowsy but *Knocks on wood* other then that no other side affects, notice my grumpy moods dont stay as long as they normally do, actually feeling better its nice to not wanna crawl up a tree due to my hormones going all wacky Smile
