In my experience, Zoloft normally affects your ability to climax and usually pretty much as soon as you take it. (There is a general belief in the profession, that if it isn't affecting your sex life, it isn't likely to be working). This frequently resolves after a few weeks, but not always. Zoloft is an antidepressant and better doctors will prescribe it for anxiety rather than an anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) because they tend to be addictive, whereas Zoloft isn't. If you want a drug free solution, see a psychologist, but that will involve you practising a relaxation routine everyday, which is a lot harder than just taking a pill.
There are some herbal remedies, (Valerian, St Johns Wort, Chamomile tea, kava etc) but whatever you do, DO NOT USE THEM WITH ZOLOFT, especially the St Johns Wort or kava (kava will also affect your sex life negatively).
