Quitting Zoloft (Sertraline) Cold Turkey

I was uncomfortable with the side effects, so, I decided to quit a month ago. The problem is, ha, I feel minor effects from even a mouthful of beer. That means they could intensify if I drink an entire bottle/tall can. The effects I'm talking about, I can't really describe, but, I certainly hope none of this drug is permanently in my system or has caused permanent effects.

Hey! having been on and off sertaline and fluvoxamine in the past, i can tell you that the withdrawal effects/side effects may last quite a while which sucks. Heck, at least it wasn't venlafaxine or paroxetine! I've heard horror stories about them.

Ok, you and some others on YouTube have mentioned withdrawal, what exactly does that mean?
