Tfw start Zoloft soon

Antidepressants and anti-psychotics don't help you in the slightest way.

How would you say it affected your productivity? I can't fucking get out of bed or do anything with my day, would that change?

Or should I just eschew proper drugs for a bunch of shrooms and pray that neurogenesis creates some new pathways in my head that free me from my super strict negatively oriented processing?

As long as you keep your usage minimal, no joke psychedelics are more effective anti-depressants than garbage psychiatry pills.

Of course if you're prone to psychosis or even addiction they can be bad news. And they should never be mixed with SSRIs

>Antidepressants and anti-psychotics don't help you in the slightest way

they helped me nigger

Antidepressants are awful but anti-psychotics definitely have their uses.

I did shrooms once in my life but not enough to trip just got a headrush like a really good weed high. I don't start SSRIs until Jan 10th. Should I trip now and then take the SSRIs a month later or would there still be adverse effects?

I'm addicted to fapping and to the internet but I drink and smoke weed occasionally without cultivating an addiction to them.

I don't know of many drugs that can make you get out of bed and ''live.'' I woke up at some fucked time in the morning to do manual labor at a dead end job during the most stressful time of the year. I cleaned stuff at home when it had to be cleaned, I ate healthy, and I managed to stay awake for the rest of the day. Anything beyond doing my job and taking care of myself or my things was out of the question. It helped with depression but not so much on the anxiety side. I still stayed within my usual group of friends and played vidya.

I'd say give it a shot for a month and drop it if you don't feel like it's for you. It's obvious that no drug can fix everything. Just a matter of trial and error with whatever drug and effort on your part.

If you take it before you should be fine, just not during. Psychedelics essentially mimic serotonin in your brain, and if you mix in a serotonin reuptake inhibitor you might weird side effects. If you handle weed fine a normal dose of shrooms shouldn't cause any issues.

>I don't know of many drugs that can make you get out of bed and ''live.''

they aren't supposed to do that either, they're supposed to give you the energy to start working on your problems ands start therapy.

for some reason I could never take any ssri for very long after starting it. Ive tried so many and the side effects are just too severe. Its probably had lasting effects on my mind. Theres other ways to fight depression than just ssris.

> feel like i've become more anti social

>currently all negatives while i wait for it to work

how long have you been taking them

i am now just over 2 weeks, need to go to doc this week to get repeat prescription and increase dose. i have 4 weeks on 50mg so 2 left

That's pretty early for any effects to kick in be it positive or negative.

Bupropion is the attempt at making something like an amphetamine that doesn't make you feel good. It might work in some cases as a "booster," more than SSRIs.

I had bad effects, but then I had my wellbutrin changed to adderall and now I feel juust fine.

doctor told me that negative side effects begin a few days into treatment then stick around for 2 - 4 weeks before the treatment starts to work. we'll see

I'm on zoloft as well. It's doesnt make you an unfeeling drone, but it certainly gets close. The thing with antidepressants (I'm only speaking about zoloft because that's the only one I've ever taken) is that they're also antihappyants. They dull all your feelings, both happy and sad. They're still there of course, you dont stop feeling. They're just heavily neutered I would say. Things that used to make me sad now only slightly bum me out. Things that used to make me happy now only slightly amuse me. For example, music is one of my favorite things and is very important to me. It used to be that in the climaxes of some of my favorite songs would send tingles and goosebumps through my body. On zoloft that doesnt happen anymore, it's just "oh that part was pretty good". Songs that used to be able to instantly make me sad dont anymore. Songs that used to instantly make me happy dont anymore. Not being as happy as you used to be able to is obviously bad. But for some people the idea of not being as sad as you used to is good enough for them. After I got on zoloft I found enjoy being sad, and I miss it. Rather feel both red and blue than just always gray. I also find that I'm at my most creative and thoughtful while sad so zoloft took that away as well. As for jacking off? To me it doesnt seem any different but I also dont remember if fapping felt any different before zoloft so I dont know.

When I took zoloft in middle school I barfed so hard I broke blood vessels. daily

I'm on 100mg too and so far it worked well. The effect isn't huge but it gives you a boost to start doing therapy and do things like spending time outside or work out more.

You doing therapy?

I didnt feel anything at 50mg, once I got to about 200 I was walking up in the middle of the night every night. Greatly reduced urge to jack off. Felt numb instead of just super down all the time. Gained some weight too. Acid reflux triggered more easily. That's what I noticed anyways.

the only real antidepressant is lithium, the others are all just big pharma money machines. it's the only drug proven to decrease the risk of suicide

tried ssris and they only made me sleepy. you dont really want to kill yourself while sleepy tho

It works well for me but took a while to take effect. At first it can be hard to sleep and the withdrawal brings that as well. I haven't had any problems with my dick not getting hard but it takes a long ass time to cum

They made me feel like complete shit and I never felt the same afterwards. Beware of brain zaps and never ever miss a dose. I'm warning you.

I've tried both of these pills, they don't do shit. Sometimes you get side-effects, but they wear off. The primary effect never showed up for me.

Prozac changed my life

what the fuck no. heroin is a healthier alternative than fucking (((SSRIS)))

makes you feel like a zombie while you're on it, makes you feel like absolute shit when you try to get off it, have fun
