How long do antidepressants take to start working? It is a question I get asked nearly everyday and the difficult answer is; they can take months to become truly effective. Whether you take Sertraline (Zoloft), prozac, or other commonly prescribed SSRIs, it is important to understand that you might have to wait months before you feel the real benefits.
