How I felt before antidepressants

IMG 2917

How I felt after antidepressants
 
1. I've taken various types, but paroxetine is the only one I remember
2,3. I've lost my libido and become dull with both negative and positive emotions. So watching anime or playing games isn't as fun as I used to be. I also gained a ton of weight.
4. No
5. I didn't experience any additional issues because I gradually tapered off the medication
6. No
 
They numb you emotionally and intellectually, I stopped debating myself in my head and thus did many stupid actions I wouldn't have otherwise done.
 
I'm on fluvoxamine and mirtazapine.
They've helped keep my mood more stable but that doesn't mean I don't still experience depressive episodes. Antidepressants are a crutch, not a cure-all; that said I would be much worse off without them.
only side affects I struggled with were low sex drive (honestly doesn't matter because I don't get laid anyways, plus not really needing to jerk off often isn't all that bad) and brain fog but at times that can have it's benefits.
They're not intended for long term use and I wouldn't advise you to use them long term but I've been on them for 8 years but as of recent they've begun to slowly lower my dosage. (if all else fails they're trialling ketamine infusions to treat chronic depression)
As long as you don't go coldturkey the process of getting off them shouldn't make you feel too shitty. as you adjust to antidepressants or your dosage being lowered you'll feel gross for maybe a week but then you'll be alright, if you still feel shit after a week discuss that with your doctor and they'll be able to suggest different antidepressants that could work better for you.
For myself I'd say antidepressants have been very beneficial but that will vary depending on the person.
 
Stop fucking talking about antidepressants they are literally poison
 
You should never be on anti depressants
It will literally fry your brain
 
I've been taking sertraline (zoloft) for a couple weeks, and the effects are positive so far, but a couple weeks isn't enough to get a definitive answer.

Here are the positive effects so far:
Less libido, which is nice. I've become more indifferent towards sexhavers.
My feelings of anger and stress are weaker, and if I do get angry or stressed, I'm able to think more normally, and those negative feelings go away quicker.
I'm still able to enjoy things.

Only adverse effect is a little more tiredness.

I'd recommend you try them if given the opportunity.
 
It helps you to cope, it kinda numbs your brain
 
1. Am currently on Wellbutrin (150 MG) since the end of February.

2. I think it helps, feel less shitty most of the time, stoped wanting to cut myself.

3. Insomnia, but that has gotten better now.

4. Yes

6. Sure, why not?
 
1. Sertraline
2. I didn't want to kill myself as much as I did before I took them, I was depressed to the point that I couldn't get out of the bed and started to harm myself.
3. I got lucky, I'd say i even gained superpower of super intense cumming, i would literally shake from pleasure. my dick was a Lil softer and it was harder to cut tho.
4. No I just randomly stopped because I was too lazy to keep taking them.
5. No, I've read that they're less efficient for autists and it's easier to stop taking them.
6. Only of you're on the verge of suicide or don't have will or power to do anything at all.
