I have always had an alcohol problem. I hoped once I got on meds that the need to drink would go away. It actually got worse. Because when I was only on Zoloft, I would not get a hangover. But the ability to control the amount I drank after starting disappeared and the black outs started. I do really really stupid things via text and email late at night. Many times I have had to look to see when the last text I sent was so I know when I went to bed. I'm am now on Wellbutrin and a small amount of Zoloft, but the black outs have gotten worse.

I know this is over a year ago do things may have changed but I have been taking sertraline for 2 months and have had serious black outs when drinking. I used to be able to drink a lot socially but now I can’t and haveno recolection of the night before. Does this get better with time?

I am learning the same about myself, and I am 51 and on three antidepressants. Scary stuff. I think I just won't drink, though hoping I can resist the urge to do so when out socially. Blackouts are scary stuff. Not worth the drink.
