    Ok so this was my experience, i was given paxil (paroxetine) for anxiety and panic attacks last year and used that shit for about 8 months. Was only 20 mg but the thing is with an SSRI is that once you have to stop using, the process of retiring the medication is slow and really fricking painful.

    From my experience once you get to that retirement phase you can experience "brain zaps" and even suicidal thoughts.

    While I was on paroxetine it made me feel numb and lifeless. Since November I'm clean of that shit but one symptom remains, derealization. The majority of my days I feel like a robot and can't really experience strong emotions and really live life.

    Of course that was my experience and could maybe be different for you, my brother for example was given paroxetine too and had a rare but very awful reaction, he got psychotic episodes and was really fricking depressing. At least he is somewhat normal now.

    >Tldr if I were you, don't take them, it can frick with your brain chemistry and have several unexpected side effects possibly in the long term

      also forgot to add something, if your feeling anxious/depressed it's better to talk about it with someone. Meds should be the last thing you could resort to.

      Sounds scary, I guess I could try going to a psychologist first instead of going for drugs but idk if I believe talking will help

    Seeing as how there are many depressed anons here please help. My girlfriend sleeps all the time, she very rarely goes outside, she doesn't eat enough and I practically need to remind her to eat. I've also gtten her on multi-vitamins, which I'm also taking myself, also begging her to take vitamin D. I think she's extremely depressed and psyk won't help us as she admitted to having smoked cannabis, so they recommended her to therapy for substance abuse... Over smoking a joint every once in a while. Sweden is an authoritarian shit hole. What can I do to help her? It's exhausting working full time, training, taking college courses while also having to watch a loved one go through so much pain?

      Goddamn. Girls have it so goddamn easy. Can you guys imagine a male like her having someone other than MAYBE his parents (if he is lucky enough to not be hated and put in the streets).
      Holy shit, meanwhile, girls can be completely worthless and still be loved and taken care of not just by their family, but by their romantic partner.
      It really blows my mind.

      sounds like she is genuinely depressed, and might need medication. The exact cause of her depression could be past trauma, genetics or brain chemistry,

        >Past trauma
        Yes pretty sure she has PTSD due to family shit. I try to be there as best I can but the paychiatrists still haven't called her back. Today she went asleep when I went to work and she's still asleep.

          Trauma is a broad issue that won't be fixed with just medication and probably not even with seeing a therapist for a one hour weekly. Here in burgerland there are trauma programs at mental health centers. I did one of these for my trauma and I'm largely cured. They may have something similar in Sweden.

          Pic related will educate you on what she may have gone through or be going through, as well as some ways to help her.

      First she has to want to get better anon. You will never help her if she just doesn't want something better.

      I'm not huge on the idea of legalizing the stuff, but I'm sure you'd get the same shit here in Australia, its dumb AF
      >What can I do
      She's going to need to do the work, and theres no guarantees.
      Social life
      Exercise
      Eating a good diet
      Time in nature
      Skills
      Goals

    Antidepressants don't work. Anxiety meds and ADHD meds do work.

    Also read this and find a therapist you can work with.

        Depression largely comes from thoughts, especially distorted thoughts. These thoughts don't mean something's wrong with you. In fact, they may be a reflection of things that are right with you (pic related). Understanding your thoughts and how they may be distorted can reduce the emotions they bring to acceptable levels.

        A chemical source for depression and the effectiveness of antidepressants has not been proven.

          >A chemical source for depression and the effectiveness of antidepressants has not been proven.
          >taking drugs and alcohol make people feel happy and more motivated and social
          pick one
          It's obvious real depression is related to brain chemistry when a depressed person can just take a drug and within hours have no depression anymore
          Like you can get a profoundly depressed person and give them ecstacy and in a couple of hours their depression is completely gone and they feel amazing. The drug temporarily altered their brain chemistry to remove depression.

    I’d advise against it. I have been depressed since 13 (23 now) and been on two types of antidepressants. I don’t remember much because it turned me into a zombie, completely flattening my mood. No, it’s not any better than feeling depressed. You can learn to live with it, that’s what I have been doing. Some people are just fricked in the head.
