We just got diagnosed in May, although we were in therapy at the wrong place for 4 years. When his doc added the Zoloft, I gave it to him for two days, he began vomiting, etc. I took him to the ER because I thought it was the meds. They found nothing wrong, sent me home. I knew something wasn't right and through perssistance discovered he had walking pnemonia. He thinks the Zoloft caused this. He is doing well, and since I've never seen him on an antidepressent, I don't know how it would affect him. I want him to see the therapy and meds positively and he does, except with this. I fear if I force him, the rest of the therapy will be seen negatively and become less effective. I called his doc and got no reply, but we see him today. His therapist is also aware of this and thinks that the Zoloft would be benificial. How do I go about getting him to take it w/o ruining his good outlook on his treatment?
