Quit being a pussy and just take it. If you don't like it then stop taking it, and quit reading bullshit anecdotes on the internet to convince yourself of what you want to hear, you doctor already told you everything you need know.
TAKE
YOUR
MEDS
Good points. Also, seriously, quit being a pussy and go do Exposure and Ritual Prevention. Or, if you like weed, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. They’re fricking thoughts. I’m thinking about fricking your wife right now. Probably isn’t going to happen tonight. I might, I’m going to try to bag her, but it’s a thought. Good luck, pussy.

I tried zoloft 200mg for social anxiety.
I only felt very a slight difference so I quit after about 6 months.
I took zoloft for about 3 years, starting when I was 14-15. Failing grades, skipped school, the usual stuff really. I had been a latchkey kid since I was 8 and had my shit pretty well together before puberty. I think the sheb***h shrink also thought I cut myself since my forearms were always roughed up from playing with our psychotic cat.
Eventually I changed shrinks, and my new doc thought that it was kinda fricked up I got medicated in the first place so he set up a plan to wean me off, reducing the dosage and putting me on topamax/topiramate to help with weight loss/binge eating. Long story short the change in medication triggered a manic episode and I did some pretty stupid shit that almost landed me in jailed.
t. frick goypills
Always look for a therapist that wants to use drugs as a last resort and only wants to use the minimal amount of drugs + a plan to get you off drugs. Too many doctors are like "lmao let's put you on drugs, oh you're not feeling it, let's amp up the dose! What, get off them? What do you mean, you must need more."
Yeah it seems common sense now but at the time I was afraid my mom would send me to Belaire if I refused.
same but for another one
I take sirtraline 100mg a day and i really like it. Just gets me off of my miserable baseline and am just generally happier and more motivated.
Only side effect is that sometimes i'll struggle to get an erection but thats only really when im super tired and slept like shit. Cant jerk off 10 times a day now either.
I was on some that treated anxiety primarily but also helped a bit on depression. I have no clue how they affect OCD. The ones I took helped me during CBT, and I ended up quitting the meds a while after treatment. I viewed them as a crutch at the time. From what I remember, for me at least, the worst part was feeling slower mentally. It's hard to compare obviously because it's all in your head, but I think it was a feeling of being slowed. Like I couldn't think as fast or as clearly as before, a bit more blurry maybe. Not sure how that worked. Also stopped having random boners and could only get hard if I deliberately wanted to jerk. Obviously helped with the negative feelings associated with anxiety, but the thing is it also lessens the way you feel positive ones. I was on a somewhat lower dosage, and it was because of the lessening of positive feels I didn't want to go higher. I'd say go for it OP, and if you get bad side effects you just ween off them and probably get something else.
Oh yeah, seeing this anon's post made me remember
I was on sertraline too. Might have to get back on it if I don't start improoving soon.
You’re gonna wanna clarify what kind of CBT you’re referring to
Not the one where your testicles get stomped on by a woman in high heels.
Yes, escitalopram as well as a few others at different times.
They did not do anything positive for me at all. Instead of feeling low/anxious or having any feeling at all they turned me into a zombie. No thoughts, no feelings, no concentration. Combined with side effects like headaches, nausea, hunger etc they are not good.
So I attempted suicide anyway by getting hit by a train because doctors are useless. Fast forward 5 years and I'm on 500mg test per week and feeling better than I ever thought was possible
Avoid the SSRI israelite at all costs
>DA JOOOOOOOOOOOOOS JUST DO NO FAP NO PORN AND LIFT AND READ PHILISOPHY AND TAKE A COLD SHOWER AND THE CORN SYRUP SNEED OILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They have arrived....
Yeah the men who realized 90% of depression in males is from low T have arrived
I'd literally listen to those guys anyday over fricking israelites who prescribe life ruining addictive substances for "I feel sad :("
I was on 10 mg of escitalopram daily for about 18 months - started at the start of 2015 and stopped right around September of 2016.
I was also very afraid of taking them but my doctor convinced me that it is the least "powerful" of all prescription antidepressants so even the worst side effects are generally pretty mild.
When I just started I got night sweats which continued for about 2-3 weeks. I would wake up in the middle of the night all drenched thinking that I peed the bed but I soon realized that it's all sweat - I'm talking head to toe sweat, as if you just ran 5k on a hot summer day.
Another thing was my dick lost a great amount of sensitivity, it became extremely difficult to finish because there was almost no sensation in my dick. This lasted for maybe 4 years. Afterwards the sensitivity came back with a vengeance which continues to this day - it became so sensitive that even lightly touching it for 30 seconds will make me cum. Thank God for numbing gels otherwise I would not be able to have sex at all.
That's just my experience. Different people have different experiences
>your brain doesn't have enough serotonin
>here take these happy pills
>no you can't just make more serotonin!!
>nooo! Sunlight and kombucha won't do that!
>brooo lmao just go outside for a walk get some fresh air and 30 mins of sun a day lmfaoooo
Holy frick I wish everyone like this could experience what this shit is actually like. Hope you fall into this pit one day yourself.
well have you tried getting 30 mins of sunlight and not jacking off? vitamin d supplement? fermented foods? like 90% of serotonin is made in your tummy. SSRIs don't actually increase serotonin
Yeah I did, it was part of the treatment to learn and do that shit. But no no, meds are just big pharma and we all just gotta pick ourselves up by our bootstraps and we too can be real people! Frick me in the ass.
The weight thing is opposite for me, I can't eat. On my worst days, the only reason I get out of bed is to eat as little as I can bear to not be starving and in pain from hunger. Last two months have been the worst I've had in years. I think I lost maybe 10 lbs in less than a month.
The powerboost you mention is exactly why I'm thinking I might have to go back on them, at least for like a year or however long I was on them last time. I was
by the way.
No kidding, after several months of escitalopram, I decided that I have enough energy to go for a 30 minute walk. One 30-minute walk every day for a year and you will lose weight. Lost weight = good looks = improved confidence. All of a sudden I'm talking to people again, even talking to girls.
Obviously the antidepressant didn't do all this but it gave me just enough of a powerboost that I started wanting to change and that's pretty big. I'm
by the way
normalgays think the cure for mental illness is diet, exercise, sunlight and usually some bullshit about gut bacteria.
And then they give an example of their fiance who was depressed when her mother died and she got better when she took up yoga.
Fricking kek, couldn't have written it better myself if I'd tried.
On one hand there's been more progress with mental health these past years, but on the other hand it's been "popularized" too, and a lot of people either think shit like anxiety is the same as being nervous or depression is the same as being sad. They just don't fricking get it. And unless you've experienced it yourself, you never will. I've never experienced suffering from stress, what kind of spastic mong would I be if I went around telling those people DURR JUST MAKE SOME TEA AND WATCH A COZY MOVIE TO CHILL OUT A BIT SWEATY THEN YOU'LL BE ALL GOOD TOMORROW 😉
my mom died and I got over it. I was just laying on the floor in the darkness for days at a time but started taking vitamin d and running and fasting. You sound like a salty c**t who thinks some pill that slows the reuptake of serotonin is going to magically change your life
You literally illustrated his point.
what does grief have to do with depression?
you are exactly the person anon is describing KEK
Did you get your Test levels checked?
Normal gays <30 y/o are the pill pushers. Don't pretend you're a rebel when you're just a homosexual
Why do you morons think low test causes mental illness?
My test is fine, in fact I /fraud/.
Normalgays will never agree that some people are just fricked in the head and need meds and therapy.
Its ALWAYS some bullshit about diet and exercise with you homosexuals.
I hope God shines light on your soul one day
it really is that simple (+shrooms) t:ex- severe psychotic depression mental wardgay
ur supposed to be anxious and neurotic, this society is built on evil and bloodshed, however u must train ur body and mind daily to cope with this bastardized reality, even though the odds are against u
Your a Black person in the crab bucket. I dealt with my shit without some homosexual pills, anyone else in the thread don't take pills to solve your problems. Its only a short term solution that doesn't fix the roof cause of your issues.
Go outside and away from IST
Lmao imagine vehemently defending something which apparently makes your life unbearable.
Been there, in the thick of it, I can guarantee you that the antidepressant is not the most effective or safest long term strategy. Even the research strongly suggests they are far less effective than the lifestyle adjustments mentioned in this thread. They can be useful to chemically interfere and drag you out of the pit long enough for you to do the work needed to improve and rewire your head, but that's it, unless you actually commit to more sunlight, better nutrition, less screen time, more exercise and better thought patterns you will forever be a slightly off-kilter pillhead (it's easy to tell who is). This all ignoring the fact that SSRI consumers have a twofold higher risk of dementia.
why do normalgays think that mental illness is caused by "lifestyle"?
because actual "mental illness" is caused by lifestyle and the "mental illnesses" that aren't (adhd, autism, etc) aren't actually illnesses at all but are considered to be because they're not compatible with industrialized society
>because actual "mental illness" is caused by lifestyle
Interesting. So the fact is that someone who is active, healthy watches their diet and gets out a lot will never become mentally ill?
Too bad pic related just didnt exercise enough.
You must realise that all your experiences are valid, and your reaction is a deep depression.
Then you must work towards a goal to alleviate your exposure to these experiences.
For me, I lift a lot and am now studying Chemical Engineering.
Either I get rich enough to solve most of my problems, or I can build my own village in the woods from scrap metal.
Unironically this. I hate it to much to wish it upon anyone but it sure as frick would be useful if people would be required to experience it before talking about it like it was a state of mood like after you had a bad day
The moment you put one of these things in your mouth is the moment you admit defeat and just rely on a pill to fix your life.
Doesn't work that way
Also microdose mushrooms instead
Dumb fricking question. Ofc not.
Go natural first. 5htp and st John's wort might be all you need. Don't feed big pharma if you don't have to.
It turns kids into gays, trannies and incel shooters. What it does to grown adults I couldn't say, but it probably isn't good.
I take Zoloft for anxiety symptoms... It helped me a ton. To each their own, but I don't even think about it anymore, I just take it with my vitamins.
No, I'm not american
escitalopram is nice. First week will probably feel like shit, good chance of decreased physical performance, sleep&appetite problems. Upside: spontaneous laughter, perhaps even mania like states. All side effects will resolve within a few weeks.
Then you can begin to use this chemical aid to fix your social anxiety. Imagine it as roids for your social functions: temporarily better when taking them, but the real benefit are the long term gains you make. Hope you get better anon.
Taking SSRIs for my OCD fricking gave me my life back no cap frfr
I had some citalopram, I lost the ability to feel emotion and I struggled to think clearly. I think the idea is that it just wipes your brain and allows you to shuffle through life like a zombie.
The absolute worst decision I have ever made, and I strongly advise against taking anything similar. I don't think my brain has ever gone back to normal, I've permanently neutered my ability to feel.
of all the things to larp about, why psych meds?
crab bucket mentality + demorilizationmaxxing
It's not a larp.
You do what you want, but I wish I'd had someone warn me off citalopram before I took it.
I started taking cymbalta recently and it's helped.

lol so you expect us to believe that all those Southern plantations that are still the same family are all owned by israelites?
Jews? In the deep South? Really?
The radical blacks on Twitter I spam with these seem to believe it. Considering what the Talmud states about how to treat the goyim it’s really not that hard a stretch.
So you think IST is comparable to twitter Black folk so you post this here?
>all those Southern plantations
Which ones
>that are still the same family
How do you know that?
>Jews? In the deep South? Really?
Step 1: don't talk about how you're israeli
Step 2: there is no step 2
So yes, I expect you to believe it
Always do the opposite of what your psych says, for they are infact a israelite.
I was on sertraline for 4 months for social anxiety, until I realized I was being poisoned and quit cold turkey. Literally felt no different.
Antidepressants are for gays.
Cardio, lift every other day. That’s it, there it goes your depression.
God I hate modernity.
>I need the heckin israeli pills
>you don't understand
I was on sertraline for 2 years and realized it gave me gyno and made me lazy and stupid. I tapered off, decided I would stop pursuing happiness in my life and get disciplined, stopped thinking for myself and started caring for others instead. Studied hard, exercised 6 days a week, hardly touched technology, ate healthy. Looked out the window and allowed myself to feel bored. It doesn't take long for your dopamine receptors to come back if you're not constantly chasing some impossible happiness. Stop trying to be happy, it's a modern lie. At best you can hope to be neutral on average with happy and sad moments, but humans have never been "happy" as a default state.
>At best you can hope to be neutral on average with happy and sad moments
Yes, that is normal
another larp
Just try vitamin D pills at first. If that doesnt work, take welbutrin or prozac or even both in my case. I take all that just to get out the bed in the morning.
Meditation can fix it but it requires daily practice. I would recommend monroe institute hemi-sync guided meditations.
>escitalopram 20mg
Yes, after 2 days taking I felt drugged up. Like if I took speed or something. So the doctors prescribed me Seroquel that I'm now happily taking.
(me)
My friend took them for a year and said it made him feel empty inside so I'd suggest to try them but don't be afraid to stop taking them if they don't help long term.
Remember tho that the real effects come after 4 weeks so unless it makes you go crazy just wait a month or two.
>Yes, after 2 days taking I felt drugged up. Like if I took speed or something. So the doctors prescribed me Seroquel that I'm now happily taking.
Seroquel is an antipsychotic. Also, doesn't it make you want to sleep all day?
I never had ED before taking SSRIs and it didn't go away for years after I stopped taking them
I also took escitalopram for a few months, for depression. It got me out of a genuinely suicidal depressive spiral, which I'm grateful for, but the side effects have me real worried. I've been going through more and more loss of libido and sexual function, and the emotional numbness is real. I like myself as a person now and want to live and better myself, so I've stopped taking the pills as of about 2 weeks ago now. The side effects are still very much lingering.
Take saint johns wort instead, it has the literal same mechanical funciton than an SSRI. They did a study and compared it with setraline and it was as effective if not even more.
I took 1800mg daily for months now and feel much much better. I never took an ssri but saint johns wort helped tremendously. I still have the deep sadness and anxiety, but the really really deep points of uncontrollable crying and feelings of dread are gone.
Also try rhodiola rosea, it's an adaptogen like ashwagandha. On top of that i would advise on taking 1200-1800mg of NAC a day if you struggle with Dopamine ( Nicotine, Alcohol addiction etc)
But most of all you need to change your life or it will just come back over and over again. good luck friend.
bro zoomers are fricked lmao, are all of you on antidepressants?
>thread about antidepressants
>everyone in it is on antidepressants
how could this be?
I was on 150mg of sertraline for a year and all it did was turn me into a narcotized zombie.
Whatever your problem is, this bullshit isn't the solution and you really shouldn't be on it for an extended period. Also the withdrawal was fricking awful.
I'm on venlaflaxine (225mg) and it's helped lessen the anhedonia and such, and the only negative side effects are lowered libido (which effectively means I only jack off 2-3 times a week instead of daily).
my parents should have put me on anti-depressants 15 years ago when i was 15 and started becoming miserable. it might have been able to fix my life
now im 30 and the most incomprehensibly miserable i have ever been in my entire life. i have thought about suicide pretty much all day this entire year so far. i have never felt more helpless, hopeless, and despondent than i do now. i get out of bed but that's basically all i do. i barely speak to anyone, i barely muster any facial expression besides a frown and scowl because even attempting to smile is too much effort and i have nothing to smile or talk to anyone about.
i just dont even see a point of trying antidepressants at this point. ive already wasted three decades of life. there's no way to fix this.
you might be one of the few people that may actually benefit from antidepressant long term
you were prescribed medication to bring you up to a functioning level. by not taking it you are not functioning at 100%, likely 50% and lower. you get nothing done, you have never finished anything to completion, you waste your time constantly
by taking the prescribed drug you will be brought up to baseline and slowly work your synapses back into working order and your psych will slowly lower the dose and take you off over time so you will be left working at baseline naturally instead of literally being useless 24/7
but don't take it so you can literally be in the same spot as you were the last time and the time before that, i want this because i enjoy the suffering of others, feed me
>you get nothing done, you have never finished anything to completion, you waste your time constantly
> instead of literally being useless 24/7
hey this is me
>Yes, I'm on several SSRI's, how could you tell?
I've never been prescribed it but one time I tried to overdose on lexapro just because it was what was around. Maybe I should give it a real try lol.
Zoloft 100mg, 6 months now. Unironically changed my life
>nofap perpetually since I can't cum anyway
>makes insecurities go away

>improved work ethic and productivity
>made friends at work, have a real life social circle now
>stop gaining weight and craving g0yslop trash
>barely have any binge eating episodes now, which helps me save money as well
I still have plenty of issues, but I went from being a wreck since last december and almost losing my job which was basically the only good thing I had going for me, to being a functioning semi social human bean. Damn I lost like 5kg without putting any effort. I strongly recommend it, but talk to a good doctor first.

You're not at all worried that as a man you've just neutered your reproductive abilities instead of developing proper discipline and coping mechanisms? >Letting the village witch doctor steal your dick in exchange for people liking your more.

NOOOO! you cant take the the goypills!! Go back in the house until you figure out how to fix yourself with diet, exercise and sunlight!!!
And just man up and stop being mentally ill!!!
I don't understand how and why so many "normies" are on anti-depressants. I truly honestly do not understand.
>How
Modern life is garbage and meaningless.
>Why
Too many people listen to women. Their solution to every problem is pills.
they have friends, family, relationship, hobbies, good job, own place, meaning in their lives. they have no business being on antidepressants
How do you know?
It's how they cope when they can't articulate how much they hate living in this modern dystopian hellscape.
>MUH HELLSCAPE
I love the amount of seething rednecks here who miss out on the constant rotation of fresh pussy in the city

Sure thing buddy.
What kind of OCD? I've had extreme OCD for years and have thought of kms and I haven't seemed to improve at all but I learned about some new treatment method today that I think might finally make sense of and solve my OCD.
Before doing ERP, look up David Burns' Hidden Emotion Technique. If you have OCD it's very likely that you are a nice person who is unconsciously sweeping a problem under the rug because you think you're not supposed to have the negative feelings you have. Maybe you hate your job but feel forced to stick with it, maybe you're mad at a loved one, maybe you're worried about something you think you shouldn't be worried about. If you bring the problem to conscious awareness and solve the problem or express your feelings the obsessions stop.
I think it would also explain why ERP is only partially successful - it operates under the premise that your thoughts are bad and occur for no reason at all and trying to make them go away with ERP essentially amounts to stabbing a body of water to fix a leak. Freud mightve been cooked up but his theories about repressed emotions weren't just pulled out of his ass.
ocd needs cbt
risperdal works but use it when bulking
That is the commonly held belief, but the hidden emotion technique works more effectively for treatment in most patients.
Sometimes it won't work at all though and you need to do erp
How would a futa draenei/femroe help with ocd?
I feel trapped. I can't accept living in this hellish dystopian shithole. I want to be a free nomadic type of man that does simple but fullfilling work. Herding goats, horses or sheep. Reindeer, who cares. I want to see the night sky and the sun rise and set. I want to feel the earth beneat my feet and not only pavement 90% of the time. I want to smell fresh air and listen to the sounds of nature. I want to see the open plains of mongolia at a fullmoons night while sitting at the fire throat singing with my friends and eating raw horse meat.
I feel cheated out of a good meaningful life. I feel traped and imprisoned and nothing can ever change that. No amount of money, nothing. Maybe a family to care about. But when i have children i know they will suffer too in this modern hellscape. There is no escape, we created our own hell. It's over.
go outside? you can literally camp year round in any state park and go months without seeing another human being
I despise you to the bottom of my heart. Just years ago before i got chronically sick i used to spend my summers chilling out in nature and circling my country by bike, because like you i like to feel the earth beneath my feet. Now i can't since my body can't handle it. I'm trapped by my own body's failings about which i can't do shit. The only thing keeping you in your "hellscape" is your homosexualry.
KYS, don't procreate and get mogged by some hippie
awesom vid
Maybe start working to establish your own homestead, you homosexual? Watch mossybottom on YouTube and start saving up, train to get a remote job, might make the transition easier.
I got prescribed SSRIs for anxiety, they made me feel like shit so I ordered benzos from the darknet and have been happy since
Take them and frick up your brain irreparably FOR EVER
All drugs do this including caffeine.
That's why people keep drinking coffee or tea for life. They've tried stopping but no matter how long they go without their coffee, they can never quite get back to how they used to feel before they first started drinking. So they go back to drinking or they stay abstinent and put up with feeling 90% of their former self before they became an addict.
Tren is my anti-depressant.
I did, the first month can hit you very hard. Try to not off yourself
Don't take SSRIs, they barely work and have shit sides. After struggling for 6 years with them I started 300mg Testosterone a week and that's actually what mostly fixed my depression. It's still work but now I can actually do what I'm ought to do

It's mostly dumb psychotic homosexuals who get aggressively defensive and keep spouting self obsessed self loathing
If you're down that bad, might as well fraud out and get ripped, guaranteed to be the better way of living compared to becoming another SSRI zombie
>I'm too afraid to take it
what a loser
I'm pretty much against the overprescription of SSRIs but for OCD it's pretty good.
>OCD
>too afraid to take meds
I turned out to be that moron that get's all the rare side effects from psych meds like seizures and the strong desire to kill myself. You can just talk to a doctor and quit the meds, try something else until you find something that works. Imagine what your life would be like if you could get your brain to stop being a pussy and obsessing over shit normal people don't give a second thought about.
Yo mushroom guys!
You always tell us to eat psycho shrooms like I can get it at the grocery shop. How the frick do you get your doses? I'm in central europe btw, all psychedelic plants are forbidden to sell or use 🙁
A lot of countries allow you to buy the spores legally for ‘microscopy’, ‘preservation’ or ‘research’. Most of those countries also allow you to buy mushroom growing kits for normalgay mushrooms. Put 2 and 2 together sperg.
Or go foraging.
Captcha: KKK N G0
I did moronicly. There's nothing antidepressant about them. They basically cut out the highs and lows of your emotions. No more rage/anger/anxiety but also no more joy. Basically makes you an NPC.
Yeah, luvox 50mg. Reduces the OCD, allows me to concentrate more, but also has side-effects.
How do you workout with intensity when all you can think about is suicide?
There's almost nothing keeping me here in this world. I fly home on December 22nd and unless life gives me a sign to stick around, I'm done.
>THE GOYPILLS WORK GOY, JUST TAKE THEM ALREADY AHHHHHHH REEEEEEEEEDESS
ssris cause permanent brain damage and offer only short-term benefits if any. only a total cucked omega would take them.
another guy just making shit up
You’ve made your point and we aren’t listening dumb yid. Leave.
Yeah, turned me into a zombie. Gained a bunch of weight that I'm still trying to burn off years later. Lifting and physicial fitness did more for any mental issues than pills for me.
another larp
I take one pill /20mg of prozac a day and it definitely helps my mood. I feel happier and slightly more outgoing and laid back, but the feeling I can't help but say feels a bit artificial.
That's the downside to antidepressants, it's synthetic medication.
Still, I'm not going to stop taking it.
>NOOOO! you cant just take goypills and live a productive life!!!
You must suffer for years alone until you finally figure out how to "man up" and stop being mentally ill on your own!!!!!
>live a productive life
>slaving for goldberg until you die is totally fulfilling bro just trust me and take the pills bro please
you realize the word "productive" doesnt necessarily mean working a factory?
It can also mean like having a family and shit.
Took them for 3 years, removed the bad thoughts but removed all the happy thoughts too. Currently unable to feel anything even after i stopped
larp #567890
You either can't comprehend anyone having a different experience than yourself because you're small minded or you're ashamed because you know you took the easy way out when you didn't have to
What's the "easy way out" from decades of mental illness and why is it somehow bad?
Please tell me so I can try it.
I understand that you're probably actually depressed. Now you try and understand not everyone who has been prescribed SSRIs should have gotten them :^)
Yet whenever someone comes on IST looking for help with their mental problems, all the know-nothing know-it-alls immediately say there's no such thing as mental illness just lift weights and it will go away, bro. And whatever you do, DO NOT seek professional help because they are all israelites.
I took escitalopram for 4 years. I stopped 2 weeks ago and i feel better than ever. It kills your libido and makes you not give a frick about anything. It's shit.
>LARP LARP LARP LARP LARP UMMMM YOU’RE LARPING
>Have you tried an SSRI antidepressant?
Yes. I forget how many but 5+ at least.
>My psychiatrist prescribed escitalopram
I took that one, can't remember the side effects but I'm guessing the standard: exhaustion, diarrhea, dizziness and headaches.
Been trying all kinds of different SSRIs at different dosages over 3 years or so. It can take weeks or even MONTHS for the full effect to kick in and it all depends on your situation if you feel the side effects are worth it. Are you desperate from relief and about to have a nice day? Probably worth it. You mention OCD, is it bad enough that you can't live a somwhat normal life? Can you handle sweating, restlesness, dry mouth, headache, stomach problems, being so tired you feel like a zombie, vision problems, concentration problems etc? Also Sertraline killed 90% of my sex drive, might not happen to you but if he prescribes next it just keep that in mind.
I took one once. Helped me sleep, gave me a partial hardon, couldnt pee, was unreasonably angry
Just stop being a pussy and deal with life as is
Why can't I get out of bed?
I used to be pretty anxious in the past. A good diet and exercise fixed all that. Frick taking medications that irreparably mess your brain up, and come with a host of side effects as well. What are you gonna do if SHTF and you cannot get your meds anymore. 34 years old and not on anything. Feel like I’m 18. 5’10 183 lbs and pretty handsome at that. I just have a bad case of vegana envy though
>no sense treating your mental illness because when the zombie apocalypse happens you wont get your prescription filled.
Also if diet and exercise "fixed your anxiety", you never had an anxiety disorder you were just a shy little homosexual.
Normalgays think clinical depression is the same being sad because your Black person team lost the Super Bowl and clinical anxiety is the same as being nervous for a job interview.
I dont know what it about other people being fricked in the head that makes normalgays so defensive and aggressive when you tell them you cant just "get over" mental illness.
Normalgays also fly into a rage when their advice to "just exercise, bro" doesnt work.
Then they double down and say you're just not exercising hard enough, you're just not dieting hard enough, you're just not trying hard enough to not be a crazy.
And that's how normalgays turned insane asylums into torture chambers years ago.
And here's another good one:
After every mass shooting normalgays say "we need to address the mental health crisis in America".
And then when someone says they have mental illness, normalgays say "there's no such thing. You just need to exercise and fix your gut bacteria."
>"there's no such thing. You just need to exercise and fix your gut bacteria."
they’re not wrong
So basically pro athletes must never suffer from mental problems?
Right?
They literally diet and exercise for a living.

cope gutcel
this is you too
"33% of college-level student-athletes reported feeling considerable symptoms of anxiety, depression, or another mental health condition. Additionally, 35% of professional athletes suffer from a mental health crisis at some point."
How is this possible? They must not be exercising hard enough.

>Normalgays think clinical depression is the same as being sad
No, normal gays who think depression and sadness are the same because psych meds are handed out like candy on Halloween. 10% of people in the US are on SSRIs. Think of all the people that have never even gone to a psychiatrist. If those quacks could examine every person the number would probably jump to at least 30%. The only fricking way you can justify the number of people on meds being as high as it is is by taking the Ted approach to thoughts on the issue
which is twisted in its own way and is good enough reason to reject the pills.
37 million in US alone only of the ones who actually went to a psych. Odds are 19:1 that their "depression" is a meme from a hole they've dug themselves into or from regular tragedies in life, like having lost a loved one recently, which isn't the same as having depression. Also TRT isn't suggested enough for men who think they're depressed because low T causes many of the same symptoms: low energy, sadness, no focus or motivation, low libido
anyone on mirtazepine/remeron whats it been like?
These pill homosexuals are just like incels. Wallowing in self-pity and if you suggest some ez tips to improve (exercise, sun, socialising, achievements) they get all surly and b***hy like a teenage girl.
Depression is natures way of weeding out the weak. Your mind is convincing you to KYS. Go and resolve it instead of swallowing some israelite tablets.

And what if after 30+ years of following this sort of advice and I'm still fricked in the head anyway?
