I experienced the EXACT same thing, friend.
I was just searching zoloft body odor and found your thread here. Last year I was taking 50 mg zoloft and weaning off ativan, the smell was horrid. I actually feel bad for my roomate who had to put up with it. Luckily, he didn't have a very good sense of smell and he probably thought it was just our "apartment smell." Though I'm sure eventually he realized it was strongest near my room.
Best way I can describe it is a sour ripe funk that will make you sick to your stomach. I noticed it was particularly bad after drinking which would further mess with my sleep. I distinctly remember waking up from passing out on the couch late one night and being overwhelmed by the offensiveness of my own strange body odor. That was the night that actually got me thinking about what the **** could be making me smell THIS bad. Trial and error as well as lots of research has led me to the same conclusions as you about Sertraline, and weaning off other meds on top of it. The alcohol was a major catalyst in my case. It was a gradual process but I'm now finally off the Lorazopam AND Sertraline- doing well so I'm going to keep it going so long as I can keep my **** together without it, not drinking much either just once a week. The smell seems to have gone dormant for now and I'm hoping to keep it that way...
