I was on prozac for a about a year when I was 25/26. Instead of feeling sad about myself all the time I didn't feel anything at all. I did not like being an emotionless husk. I dropped that shit, picked up running, and lo and behold my depression was cured. It's almost like sitting in your room all day, in the dark, and eating shitty food makes people depressed.

>didn't feel anything at all

That is the point. It does not even act on the neurochemistry actually responsible for depression ... instead, it just indirectly tunes down brain activity.

They will make you feel emotionless in my experience. The point of them is to stabilize someone who is severely depressed, not make you happy...

lexapro made me quit stressing about work all day and get out bed. everyone here will tell you to ignore medication but seriously fuck this shit go see a doctor.

Why poor countries have little to no problems with depression and countries like Sweden have a massive amount of cases.

If they work right for you, you feel like yourself, just a tiny bit better, but that little bit can feel like a lot at certain times. They’re not happy pills.

This. Im on lexapro as well. They work different for everyone, but for me, I don’t stress over things as bad as I used to. I still am depressed and have anxiety that I’m working through, but it’s a little better than before.

>Will they turn me from a anxious nihilistic person to a happy man?

No. They'll flatten out your moods so you don't shoot yourself in the head or lose your job. Being HAPPY is more complicated, and is on you.

Don't listen to these faggots. There are few things you truly need to understand. You're right nothing really matters. I'm not being edgy I'm being real. This is freedom that nothing matters. But this is not a bad thing, it means nothing matters till you make it matter. Whatever you decide matters, matters and this makes you the true master of the universe. Make yourself happy and not others. Do whatever you think is important. Carve yourself into the world and let nothing hold you back

I've been on ADs for several years. I've tried many of them. Every one works on every person differently, so it's hard to find the right combination. For 2 years, I was on Lexapro and Wellbutrin. I was an emotionless automaton, and I fucking loved it. Nothing could bring me down. Problem was, it also made me sleep up 16hrs a day and still be sleepy the time I was awake.
Long story short, they work great, but they also have weird side effects. The increased suicidal thoughts one is no joke on a few of them. Scary.
Now, I'm on Effexor and using a small amount of amphetamine (Adderall). I have energy, motivation, drive, ability to socialize, a decent self-esteem and low-to-no depression, all at the cost of a raised resting heart rate.
Chemicals really do work, Sven. But if you can find a way to get by without them, that's the best route of course. For me, I tried diet, exercise, CBD oil, therapy, psilocybin mushrooms, GHB, fixing my sleep apnea, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and pretty much anything else there is that I can't think of right now. The only thing that ever worked was chemicals.

Does it cause lasting effects when they are fed to kids, especially the age of 12, and under?
I am talking about, them lowkey frying your brain, or something.

No
Unless they happen to make your symptoms worse. Although this is pretty honest from a psychfag.

This is great advice, honestly. But to people who have out-of-whack brain chemistry, we literally cannot think like this for longer than a few seconds at a time. It just never sticks.
Once the chemicals are flowing, it becomes so much easier to think logically.

No. They really just numb you at best. Just smoke pot if shits that bad for you, but understand you're just running away and escaping from the problem and drugs are cope. Real solution is to ID and overcome the problem.

I need to go outside more

Anti antidepressants just do exactly that, it stops your dark and gloomy depressed thoughts that make you break everyday, but they are not "happy pills" just stop you from breaking down, with this "extra" energy you are supposed to pull you out of depression, takes a lot of internal changes, self insight and work to overcome depression. And it's even a little harder if you have anxiety because AD might activate a bit of your anxiety. In conclusion they help you but it's not the end of the battle

T. On venlafaxine a year

My Doctor's strongly recommending that I go on them, but idk I kinda just wanna speak with a psychologist. I go from killing myself to just feeling numb about life.

Do they help or fuck you up even more?

They will turn you fat and lazy.

What do you need them for? Panic attacks?

I have a more optimistic view on life since taking Zoloft 50mg.

This.
Isn't it better to be numb than to want to kill yourself all the damn time? It is for me, at least.
>t. not a pharmajew, I swear.

Does anybody know of any medications that treat OCD? I’m an undiagnosed person with OCD and it become almost life crippling. I need serious help please

they will mask all your symptoms and make you a blue pilled cuck ass normie whose dick no longer works and gains 30 pounds. don't do it

What's lo?

Mine work... they aren’t SSRIs...

Basically, they just make me less irritable. I was getting so agitated and snippy, I was certain I was going to get fired from my job eventually. Lots of rage and hostility.

I just don’t get as upset about things and I’m generally more content. One issue I have is I’m probably not as interested in people or doing things as I usd to be... So I don’t care as much about stuff...but in a bad way as well as good I suspect. Overall I’m reasonably content, which is all you can hope for in this day and age.

Antidepressants should be a last resort seriously. Try self improving your life around you, eat healthier, workout, get outside, do therapy, fix problems around you, and if you are still depressed than ok take meds.

You're right on the limp-dickedness and possibly gaining weight. Way off on turning into a betacuck.

no. you need benzos not antidepressants

Honestly, the numbness contributes to the depression, I mean why live if I'm aren't going to feel anything good and just go through life on automation mode?

Is the adderall giving you some pep?... I’m the same...too much sleep. I have zero energy to do anything beyond surviving monetarily. I enjoy weekends...purely so I can sleep.

I was on Citalopram for about a year and moved onto Mirtazapine later on.
Been off them for over a year, I wouldn't start If I were you. Your mood just flattens completely and you become zombie like.
I can barely remember anything from that period, it's scary.

Psychology is good to get an understanding of yourself and your problem...it’s very useful in my opinion, but for me, understanding the issue didn’t solve it. Drugs did actually help.

Internet, social media, obesity, etc.

Leafbro, speed is the nectar of the gods. It cures everything that is wrong with me. Energy, motivation, don't need a nap during the day, depression gone, much more social, think quicker, can apply my autism to useful things, healthy sense of self-esteem.
I am using amphetamine paste, not prescribed adderall, but it's the same thing, in theory.

Great advice. Stay away from them if you can, OP.

Withput a diagnosis you may have nothing. Think about that.

Hmm, maybe you need something to apply yourself to. An autistic outlet.
Myself, I loved being an automaton. If my entire family died in a fiery car wreck, I probably wouldn't have cried. Much, much better than letting my emotions rule over me like usual.

For me antidepressants and therapy is the best combination, so take both

Kill yourself

Almost every school shooter in the US was on SSRIs

They don't make you happy inherently. They set chemicals straight in your brain so you are able to pursue happiness. You'll still have to put work in yourself

i can say for certain

that they turn hyperactive kids into school shooters

It will just make you more sociopathic.

Have seen this happen.

>Way off on turning into a betacuck.
>right on the limp-dickedness and possibly gaining weight
do you even listen to yourself fat cuck ass faggot with a broken dick?

I need this... I’m a bit worried about addiction. Is that an issue?

Like it's been said, antideps doesnt make you happy. It flatlines you.
Go out more when the sun is out, take vitamin D supplements.

I felt like an eternally depressed cunt, then I got my blood tested and it came back with minor vitamin D defficiency.
Got prescribed 3x 25ug a day, and who would have guessed - I dont feel like a dwelling depressed wanker anymore.

yes it's an issue. and amphetamines are also known for turning people into degenerate sex crazed animals who jack off to porn for 12 hours straight

No. They will turn you into a good goy though.

My OCD is a superpower it usually works in weird ways
Like I had to know how my nation worked, paper money, how the state organs came into being. I got panicky without knowing. Led me onto the truth. It doesn't cripple my home life too much. I need to clean the kitchen, not my missus just in case she puts shit in the wrong places ( women are messy fuckers all men must know this). Im super organised because of it. I also get up early, even on weekends when I'm not at work as if im missing out on vital info gathering. Stay strong, user, utilise it for your benefit .

You may benefit more from (IRSN) rather than (ssri). Irns makes you feel like an active bunny, and it's on to you to direct that energy to something useful, in my experience they make you feel feelings WAY more intense if you have them, then again it works different for everyone

My cousin turned up on my doorstep one night out of the blue after he had split with his wife and must have been on anti-depressants, he never visited before but here he was, jabbering like a madman with white foam build-up on the side of his mouth, you could see him deflate as the drug wore off. So my experience is that they solve fuck all and turn you into a desperate annoyance.

That will help. Going /out/ is better than any chem pill.

I suspect this is a big factor in the whole ‘mass shooter’ thing. Between false flags and prescription drug issues...that’s 85%...not including random black street crime.

I was on seroquel and celexa for about 18 months. It was hell after I stopped taking it. I couldn't sleep and you can literally feel the chemical imbalance in your brain.

I was on prozac for about a year or so.
It wont make you happy. It just kinda blocks your feelings in a way to turn you into a vegetable.
The only real benefit I got from it is that I lost, for some reason, a shitload of weight with it.
I decided to dump that shit and when asked by my local doctor (not the one who prescribed the med) she said if you feel okay after quitting then thats good.
Been doing fine since then.

So if you really suffer from your depression I think it can be good to help you put yourself together for a while. Just dont get addicted to it and quit once you feel you are back on track.

Gl user.

Cool! I’ll look into it...

This
I have noticed an increase of younger people being prescribed drugs . Im 31 , when I was younger know one took anything. they are Americanising us in the worst ways.

In my personal experience, SSRIs (and SNRIs) are shit. I've tried a plethora of them and never noticed any differences. And yes, I took all of them religiously for at least 3 months each (meaning for every drug that I tried).
I really think that SSRIs are, at best, placebo. Supposedly, to the degree that they do "work," each one works for only a small percentage of people (meaning you have to "find the one that works best for you"). Additionally, due to their inherent mechanism, it takes at least a month before any (desired) effects become noticeable. So because the change is so gradual, it's almost impossible to really identify if it's working and, if you do start becoming less depressed, it's almost impossible to know how much of that is due to the drug vs time itself.
I know many will call me a degenerate junkie-nigger for what I'm about to say buuuut, IME, low-dosages of disassociatives work incredibly well--and incredibly fast (~20 mins)--for depression. Honestly, they eliminate it altogether. Ketamine provides the best balance between efficacy + functionality but it's illegal. However, some doctors have begun administering Ketamine for depression (though most insurance providers will not cover it). You can see if there's one near you online.
I hate going through doctors so I just order a large amount of 2-FDCK from Gookland, test it for purity locally, and administer it myself. Ketamine is Schedule III so you should not get into any legal trouble for simply possessing any "legal" analogs of it.
Hope that helps!

I'm not against them in and of themselves but they're mostly useless without an effort to change your way of thinking by going to support groups or therapy

You need to ease off slowly. I stopped Effexor quick... holy shit the dreams were OTHERWORLDLY. I wouldn’t even attempt to describe it.

Best advise, sadly few people take the /out/pill and it's a shame, nature is the greatest antidepressants ever, it even makes you happy

Try CBD oil if you're feeling anxiety or have problems focusing.
Is CBD legal in Sweden Surströmmingfag?

Antidepressants make you unable to trip on acid anymore, which fucking sucks. They kinda work, it's better than feeling like shit all the time without them. Big pharma pushes them on as many people they can because why not, they're happy drugs and what harm could come from them?
Taxation is theft. Taxation is the initation of force upon the citizenry by the invalid government which only exists as a concept, and it is a violent and aggressive concept because the property and death toll from the existence of all governments and their actions is higher than anything that has ever threatened humanity prior. We must abolish the state. The government violates the Non-aggression principle all the time and the citizens are not allowed to interfere with that process directly otherwise they will be imprisoned or killed by the guns of the state. The justice system, which is a system of true injustice, makes people guilty until proven innocent. The whole governmental system is corrupt. Your tax dollars are spent both on bombing 3rd world countries, while simultaneously bringing the people from those countries in and giving them massive welfare and education and housing, allowing them to displace the previous demographic makeup. Fuck the government. We need anarcho capitalism. Watch Stefan Molyneux.

Depression isn’t real. Anybody who sits on their ass on the computer/tv eating shit food and working a terrible dead end job will feel like shit all the time. People who eat good, work out, have a stimulating career, and a social life are not depressed. The drugs won’t do anything good for you.

You still need to deal with your emotions.
I did anti depressants years ago but stopped them cos I think they're messed up but now I still get waves of depression and only just learning to deal with where my depression truly comes from. Childhood shit.

They use drugs and alcohol

seroquel is fucking poison and is handed out like candy
makes you a literal zombie

Delete social media stop watching Tv along with the /out/pill. Social media and tv are there to implement neurosis.

They're good. Just don't stop taking them too soon. I quit mine after a year or so and my depression quickly returned.
I'm on Brintellix now, it's great. Only side effect is that I occassionally have weird dreams. It's rarely prescribed though because statistically speaking, it tends to be less effective than SSRIs. It's the best psych med I've ever been on though.

Avoid them at all costs.

I honestly like that side effect, it was a wild ride on my dreams, like full body virtual reality

They killed my penis and gave me explosive diarrhea... so they do something. It wasn’t much help with depression though.

you know that Trump had the FDA fast track and approve a nasally administered analog of ketamine esketamine to combat depression right?

No.

Every single European I've meet drink and use more drugs than my fellow Brazilians, it's not it.

Sources?

If you are suicidal and in really bad shape, they will save your life. But you will still need to go on a self improvement track to improve your life.

Seroquel is an anti psychotic.
I had weird compulsive urges to be violent on ssris, actually abused my poor dog a bit. Off them I've never gotten physical with anyone or anything. It really is playing with fire. More common than you'd think for all sorts of meds, "Rage" is literally a generic side effect

Doesn’t Brazil have a big crack problem?

Never try to trip on AD, or of curiosity how many tabs did you try before realizing it didn't work?

>nihilists on pol
let's get one thing straight, you're not done until all the jews are gone

Probably.

I have friends who were fed amphetamines from a young age and are now unable to operate without heavy doses of stimulants.

Trump needs to get off his fat retard ass and legalize weed if he wants my vote again. He had nothing to do with ketamine research aside from a signature lol.

No. Physical addiction is very slight. You will feel more tired and depressed for 2-3 days after stopping from long term use. It's the psychological addiction that may kick in. Once you've used it and see how great it is, you're not going to want to stop using it.

Growing up, my family never made regular visits to the doctor so that’s why I was never diagnosed. Even now that I’m in college, I don’t have access to any health care services so I’m still undiagnosed.
This. (kinda)
I’m super fucking organized with my shit to the point it’s borderline neurotic. My apartment is super fucking neat and clean, I fold all my clothes after washing, and even the apps/photos on my cellphone and laptop are organized. But, although being organized and neat is nice and all, I feel like I spend too much of my time thinking about organizing the shit in my life to the point that it’s taking away time from other things. (Family, friends, etc.)

It's more complicated than that. Drugs are serious medication. Their best use is to stabilize things so you can fix whatever the big problems in your life are. They're also unpredictable and can have unpredictable side effects.

Use them if you need them. Taper off if you don't. Don't expect them to magically make you happy.

Get a load from "will to power" here.

It's far more important to do what works for YOU than anything else.

>Does it cause lasting effects when they are fed to kids, especially the age of 12, and under?
Yes.
>I am talking about, them lowkey frying your brain, or something.
Much, MUCH more complicated than that. Some kids just go suicidal on them, so you need to be a LOT more careful with them. Most is off label use.

SSRIs are not a substitute for eating right, exercising properly. Getting the fuck off of Jow Forums.

And it makes it impossible to sleep without it. I think i'm still suffering from mild insomnia 4 years later.

Voluntary lobotomies would sell like hotcakes.
