Zoloft, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), can sometimes lead to increased anxiety, especially in the initial stages of treatment. This reaction may occur as the body adjusts to the medication and its effects on serotonin levels. Additionally, individual differences in metabolism, dosage, or the presence of underlying conditions can contribute to persistent anxiety despite treatment. It’s important to discuss any ongoing symptoms with a healthcare provider for potential adjustments or alternative therapies.
Maybe zoloft was not doing the expected effect; or their side effects are too strong.

First, you can't just stop taking Zoloft--if you've taken it for more than a month or so, you'll have to slowly decrease your dose until it is 10mg or so and then stop (this should take several weeks.) Then you're ready to start Lexapro (no cool off period in between is necessary.) Note: I am not a physician but I know that if your doctor recommended changing from Zoloft to Lexapro s/he would have already gone over this--be careful--Zoloft has a profound effect on your brain chemistry, make sure your doctor is in agreement on this. Note: I've taken Zoloft (Sertraline) and Wellbutrin in different strengths for over 6 years, these are serious drugs.
