Hi, and welcome--
I had a similar experience on Zoloft. I can't prove it and never kept a record, but I noticed a lot more, and faster, muscle fatigue. I wasn't running a ton (maybe 3-4 miles a few times a week) when I started on Zoloft, but on it, I'd get exhausted after half a mile.I seem to remember reading that muscle fatigue is a less-common side effect of SSRIs.
But it all may very well have come from depression. I lost a lot of weight from depression (17 lb) and I started smoking occasionally b/c of anxiety. So I'm sure I didn't have the best nutrition or carb reserves or respiratory capacity. So who knows.
