Medfag here. SSRIs are first line medications for major depression, anxiety disorders, some eating disorders, bereavement disorders, and PTSD. While psychiatry is a relatively new field, the place for SSRIs is well established in many disease states.

Piracetam has absolutely no benefit over an SSRI in any conceivable clinical situation. I don't know why you're on an SSRI, but I can guarantee you that swapping it for piracetam will be useless. If you are having concentration issues, there are other, actually useful, medications that you can take.

If you are taking an SSRI for depression or any other psychiatric diagnosis, please do not suddenly stop taking it unless you are having suicidal ideations. In that case, call emergency services.

If you cannot tolerate an SSRI, there are other drug classes to try for a psychiatric diagnosis. Do not swap it out for a Reddit meme. Go see a health professional and never trust this Mongolian basket weaving forum.

You're just a faggot med student that regurgitated Wikipedia. Kill yourself.

Vast majority of SSRI's tend to be worse then placebo, cause horrifying side effects that are worse then the state they are curing, and ruin the mind and body of person on it.

i smoke weed with mine and it tends to work better.

It's worth a shot. In my experience, yes, it works. But I decided to stop because I was beginning to worry about what it may be doing to my brain long term.

If you have anxiety or a predisposition to psychosis or some other psychological issue then weed is the absolute worst fucking drug you can ever take.
End of discussion.

not really though, only for some

I have been taking an ssri for 2 years and it cured my crippling anxiety with no noticeable side effects after the first two weeks. My quality of life is so much better. But thanks to u I just flushed all mine down the toilet, phew thanks bro :^]

Oh wOW you got me I will defo kill myself now :^)


There are dozens of articles available online that state the contrary. Here is a review article on fluoxetine (Prozac): ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC356924/

All medications have side effects, especially those that deal with neurotransmitters in the brain. SSRIs aren't perfect (can cause headache, confusion, sexual dysfunction, even suicidal thoughts), but there is plenty of literature to support their use in psychiatric disorders, particularly over placebo.

You're right.
Of all of the weed smokers some will have severe anxiety or predispositions to psychosis or severe psychological issues.
That "some"?
They should never be in the same room as a bong.

Those are the SNRI.

no

Personal anecdotes and a youtube video does not change facts.

SSRIs are garbage. After Prozac went on the market, the number of people on disability for depression *doubled* in 10 years.

Even with cherry picked studies and lots of other chicanery the benefit is very small and temporary.

Tolerance kicks in and you have to stay on the meds just to keep at the pre-med baseline.

Also studies showed that SSRIs produce violent tendencies in some people (confirmed in animal studies) which is why 90% of the mass shooters are on SSRIs.

lol

Please actually read this article. We're talking about SSRIs, not all antidepressants that have ever entered medical use. The conclusions in this article are based on multiple meta-analyses that include studies on monoamine oxidase inhibitors, tricyclics, SNRIs, hell maybe even ergotamines.

Even with all that data mixed together, the article acknowledges that antidepressants do have an effect, just not as large as initial studies demonstrated. This is an easy conclusion to come to; assessing subjective symptom improvement is difficult and many external things other than medication can affect depression. Antidepressant drugs are not the only meds under this scrutiny. Bias will always be present in studies and study design can always be better.

I haven't heard of the first statistic but it makes sense. Prozac has been around for over 30 years, and came about during a time where there was increased scrutiny on mental health in the western world. I wouldn't be surprised if more disability claims were accepted based on this cultural change.

I literally know nothing about the second statistic. Antidepressants are well known for causing suicide attempts as they can frequently invigorate a user enough to follow through with a suicide plan. Perhaps the same can be said about shootings? Or maybe it is the SSRI causing people to suddenly attack others? Then again, the drug class has been around for decades. Why the sudden bump in shootings now of all times?

Can you please provide an article or statistics from a non-blog website?

You're either pre-med (if US) or haven't had much patient interaction if you're still this optimistic about people.

Autism. The post.

SSRI's just make you numb to any emotion, that emotion can be empathy, youre more likely to do criminal activities if you feel no remorse from it. Those same are on benzos for anxiety, which makes you more risk prone. I could be conpletely wrong but as I see it, this was my mindset on those drugs. Never again.

Pretty much.

depression is an illusion

You wish.

Who is godess on op?
