Are antidepressants worth it?

[Leo0509]

My depressions are killing me since quarantine started and I can‘t go to the gym

I feel so dead inside and everything seems unreal, like it‘s a dream and I‘m stuck in my own body.

Should I give antidepressants a try?

 

[ChaddeusPeuterschmit]

No

No, you will be fucked

 

[JustTrynaGrow]

No they're honestly shit unless it's for recreational use.

You'll get better results from methylphenidate based adhd meds (ie ritalin, concerta)

No, you will be fucked

i took several different ones over the years and they just made me numb to everything

Escitalopram did small good changes to me for 4 months. Now I'm off it (without reducing doses, shit idea). In my case not much can be done anyway. No big changes.

I think I may need to go on SSRIS. Im depressed and have horrible social anxiety. How did they help you?

i went from being extremely suicidal, anxious, panic attacks every day, depressed as fuck to almost normal. im not 100% but im sure as hell a LOT better
also when these retards in this thread say theyre "depressed" that just means theyre sad that theyre ugly and not living like a chad. there is a huge difference between clinical and environmental depression

Copenhagen Wintergreen should do the trick.

I didn’t take the ones I was assigned because Zoloft is said to stunt growth

I used to have bad panic attacks last year at night time. I dont have them anymore but every day Im anxious, anxiety, and always down. I have more anxiety then depression that's for sure. How did you get help? Looked around on google and call their office? I need to get help but dont know how to? Do I go to a psychiatrist?

even your general doctor can prescribe them. just go to one and say youve been feeling depressed and anxious lately and youll get an SSRI. i know im a random on the internet but please go get the help you need. fuck the others in this thread that dont "get" it. they dont understand how it is.

i used to get really anxious at night too, right before sleep. like i would think about how going to sleep is actually scary, like slowly slipping into the void of sleep. im fine now

 

[Deleted member 2846]

yes u need them

I don't really consider myself 'depressed' at all, but I certainly have social anxiety which fucks up my life.

I think I want to try SSRI's for that.

 

[MaxillaIsEverything]

I can only speak for myself but stay the fuck away from them. Been on SSRI and they fuck up your brain and cause shit like brain fog and awful memory recall. I also experienced insane withdrawal symptoms like excruciating headaches even though I only been on them for a few months. Considering the state you are describing it might be an improvement to be numb to all kinds of thoughts and emotions though even if it comes with signifcant a mental decline

 

[SubhumanCurrycel]

Don't take Jew pills and NEVER take SSRI's

 

[wristcel]

SSRI's can apparently make you low inhibition

What if you have brain fog and shit memory already?

Cut electronic devices (phone, tablet, pc), reset your brain.
Write down all you need to ascend first, though.

 

[Stare]

Don't trust this forum for the answer, you are at the wrong place, no one here knows enough to say if you should take them or not.
Go see a psychiatrist and they will help you.

 

[fauxfox]

If you have low dopamine too Wellbutrin worked well for me. You may be deficient in some vitamins/minerals so do a blood test.

Speak to a psychiatrist but do your own research as well. Some doctors are paid by pharmaceutical industries to push their pills.

If I were you I'd:

• Go outside and walk/jog around for an hour every day, take in the sunlight
• Do bodyweight exercises in your own home
• Take a daily multivitamin
• Speak to a psychiatrist
