How to tell if Zoloft is working?

how do I know if zoloft is working? I switched to it (150mg) from lexapro (150mg) and I'm not sure I feel any different.

I was on it for a few months and saw no improvement so I stopped it. Surprisingly my withdrawal wasn't that bad

Switching meds usually doesn't feel much different at first and is a gradual change, unless they're like straight zombie drugs, they usually say you start feeling a difference in 2-6 weeks of use. You can always ask your doctor or psychiatrist if you think they aren't working or if you need any other information about it. They really don't mind answering any queries.
