3 months on 50mg zoloft. Switching to 15mg lexapro. Expecting less interaction with alcohol as zoloft was causing me to blackout and also worsened my hangovers. Anyone experienced this transition before? How was it?

if you drink a lot and are trying an SSRI I would go with citalopram worked wonders for me for about 4 months. start at 20 and work your way up to the maximum dose of 40 after that you sealing out and you got to find some other way
 
I made that switch last year (same dose) and I saw zero benefit. I think my sex drive took a hit if I remember correctly. I went from no drive and not caring to no erection and pissed off. Didn't drink while on either at the time but booze has a lessened overall effect while on Zoloft currently.
