Welcome to the forum. What specifically is it been prescribed to treat?
I am currently on Sertraline (Zoloft)100mg for 'adjustment disorder with depressed mood'. Originally I went to the doctor for the music that was constantly playing in my head (it wasn't even a song that I liked

).
I could get lost in my duties at work & I always had some busy-ness or chatter going on in my head. I think that the constant brain activity was making me tired.
I had a cup of coffee when I got up & wouldn't have any caffeine after that. Once I was fully awake, I was off & running for the rest of the day. I was down to one meal at the end of the day & went to bed shortly after. I was stuck in this routine for many years until it caught up to me.
Do you feel the SSRI is working for you or do you feel that it should be working better? Have you discussed other classes of drugs with your doctor?
I just needed to 'take the edge off' my constant self-talk & over-thinking things. I feel comfortable with my current dosage. I can handle my day-to-day tasks without it becoming groundhog day over & over again.
The best of luck to you.
