Considering this as an alternative to SSRIs/SNRIs. Supposedly, it has no sexual blunting effects and it can actually *decrease* appetite rather than the opposite (useful for cutting). Any opinions or personal experiences?No anti-psych faggotry please. I need relief from my shitty loner life and I'm not willing to go the recreational drugs route.
avoid caffeinebe mentally prepared so that you don't have angry outbursts
>>76586703First of all, it IS an SNRI, but sure, give it a shot. When I first tried it it felt great. Gave me focus and energy again. After a couple of weeks it just started making my anxiety worse, though, so be aware that can happen. It's a pretty low-impact drug so it's a good place to start but it's not for everyone. I also tried atomoxetine, which broke my dick completely, and now I take desvenlafaxine, which basically saved my life. Fixed my anxiety almost completely and gave me the ability to focus on top of that. Talk to a psych so you can try a few things, it can be hard to find the right pill for you.
>>76586783I almost blew my brains out on pristiq. I’ve never felt crazier in my life, and the only reason I’m alive is because the gun misfired.It’s so interesting how different our individual neurochemistry is; now I take Cymbalta and it works for me how pristiq works for you.
>>76586783>it is an snriit doesnt touch serotonin according to chat gpt
>>76586799right. ssris and snris can go on this chartwellbutrin is somewhat unique for hitting dopamine instead
>>76586783Can confirm, Atamoxetine nuked my libido and ability to feel pleasure. Its been like 5 months since i've cold turkeyed and its only now getting slowly better.
>>76586798i'm not sure if it was pristiq or something close to it but someone i know said they were constantly thinking about driving their car off the road on it
>>76586703I actually have personal experience with this, the doctors prescribed it to me after I left the loony bin.I stopped taking it after 3 days, can't really comment on the effects of the drug.Now I am on Ritalin, it helps me focus and I actually get shit done now. Cleaning my appartment is no issue now, I can actually be prductive for 8 hours at work but it feels like I can't properly recover now, after a good workout I am usually tired but for some reason I can't sleep until it's like 12 pm and only get 7 hours of sleep each night.
>>76586817It was like my brain was on fire. In a moment of weakness I finally caved and got the Johnson and Johnson vaxx and that was what tipped me over the edge. Had I not been struggling so badly I would have never compromised my integrity and succumbed to the peer pressure.Got super drunk and I was pretty set on “handling” my situation.
>>76586799SSRI = selective serotonin reuptake inhibitorSNRI = selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitorSNRIs don't affect serotonin. Welbutrin is an SNRI.
>>76586811Libido was normal for me but I got some bizarre dick malfunctions. Shrank up smaller than it's been since middle school, was virtually impossible to get hard all morning after taking it, and when I managed to get hard enough to have sex, cum just dribbled out continuously for like a full minute before I actually had an orgasm. Was very confusing the first time it happened, felt kinda neat though. Stopped taking that shit quick in any case.
Fucked with my junk and libido. Did literally nothing positive. Got off after two months and never looked back.A lot of Depression is low test - get that checked out.Also, the human animal cannot be physiologically normal living inside. Please spend as much time outside getting sunlight on your skin and into (indirectly - dont stare at the sun) your eyes as you can muster. Also, eat meat. Steak is best.
>>76586799None of the letters in SNRI stand for serotonin.
>>76586822>I got the vaccine because an antidepressant made me do it.
>>76586888wtf? spend 5 seconds on google please
>>76586891No, the immense pressure from work and peers made me get the vaccine. I folded like a chair when I ordinarily wouldn’t have. It was a moment of weakness because I was severely depressed/suicidal and not making rational decisions.
>>76587059Feel free to prove me wrong with a screenshot.What do you think those letters stand for?
>>76587069Sorry for misinterpreting your posts and coming down on you like a hammer.
>>76587171super niggers rape infants
can confirm, most times I would just forget to eat and have to force myself to. I literally never felt hungry at all. Gave me brain fog like hell tho, I would start slurring my words and switching words around in my sentences and then I'd just forget to take them. I dont take them anymore but I would say I get irritated really easily now. You gotta know how to fight the negative feelings. Also never had problems with caffeine, I think it depends by person
>>76587174It’s okay bro. Thank you for the apology, I really appreciate that.. Thanks for being kind.
>>76587203Again, I'm sorry. I can sometimes get caught up in the vitriol of this website, even though I'm trying my best not to be a dick. I hope you have a good day.
Gonna ask my psych about bupropion tomorrow, currently on Escitelopram and Quetiapine.I'm in a major depressive episode RN and hope it can get me out. Diagnosed Autism and Anxiety disorder; the psych's medicated my anxiety (Proponol, Oxazepam, sleeping pills) so I could pass my exams, it worked, but now they kinda dropped me cuz they underestimate my depression. Happy i had the energy to setup the meetings.
>>76587280(I'm an open book, happy to answer all questions and id love advice).So now I got a degree and gotta get a job, and as the anxiety started decreasing, suddenly i hit this wall (Depressive episode im still in). Fucking sucks man, I had such great momentum to go from NEET to true adult.Now Im still living with my mom, instead of buying or renting a house with my longterm BF (Yeah I'm gay AND european)
>>76587280Bro, you need to go to a clinic for ketamine therapy. The IV ketamine is life changing; it starts with a series of 6 consecutive treatments and then once a month or as needed
>>76587300I'd be willing to try that if this doesn't work. Whats it like? I'll describe my drug experiences too;Escitelopram: Slight overal mood boost, almost don't notice it anymoreProponol: Gets ur heart rate down pretty quickly, made the cramping chest anxiety symptom and high heart rate symptom disappear.Oxazepam: Heaven if i didn't get used to it so quick. First times got me almost knocked out, then it perfectly removed anxiety, then it became a tiktak.Quetiapine: Awesome, voice in head more controllable and quieter, less hypervigalenge, muscles relexant after 2 hours (for me) which helps with sleeping.
>>76587322It really helped with the PTSD panic attacks I was having after the gun I had in my mouth misfired. It was fucking me up pretty bad, and it felt as if my body was preparing for a fight to the death as I would have vivid flashbacks of everything about that moment. So that sucked for a while.As far as the treatment itself, you are nearly incapacitated for about an hour and it’s pretty psychedelic and completely dissociative. I’ve had a few epiphanies, and then it feels as if the volume is turned down on all the bad stuff for a while after. It helps get you out of the death spiral do you can completely avoid the worst part of a depressive episode.
>>76587340Holy shit man, ur stuff sounds alot more horrible than mine. Happy things worked out the way they have and you found something that works.Wanna talk about it or anything else? I Think I can really use the advice from someone like you.
>goy pills
>>76587386It’s all relative, suffering is still suffering. I’m actually pretty good all around now but thanks for the offer.. I’m not sure what kind of advice you’re looking for, could you be more specific?
>>76586837Its serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor and wellbutrin is and NDRI.
>>76587731Huh guess you're right, nevermind.
>>76586703300mg XL made me feel manic and like i was on crack/meth150 mg XL was okI'm about to ask for a 75mg SR because I never treid that one before.
>>76586703ex was on it.. she said it would randomly give her negative/angry thoughts. She had no idea way... until she stopped taking it.
>>76586703made me horny
>>76586703Better than anything else. I'd like you to work on not taking it. Confronting why you are angry and accepting it is the best long run option for your health. Intensify your fitness training. This drug can get you out of a hole but it flattens your spirit. Stop being hard on yourself and make training a primary goal in life. Do it for you. Do something good for you just because.
>>76586821Straight d-amphetamine has a shorter half life. Cut back on your dose and do your heavy mental work in the am, easy in afternoon. Train.
>>76586703I'm on it as a non-stim adderal substitute.You might feel mild chest discomfort - in your heart I mean. Other than that, its fine.
>>76587997haha I already have those on my own>>76588544they give it for that, people on ssri's will lose their libido so they're go lol try this and give them wellbutrin for it... then another med like this - you see people on topamax, we call it dope-a-max, is for weight loss because it kills appetite a bit to balance out the carb hunger from anti-psychotics like zyprexa>>76589243you shouldn't feel this at all bro wtf
>>76587203>>76587222okay now suck each others dicks
>>76590840Why?
>>76586703Look up Dopamine Agonsit Withdrawal Syndrome and Tardive Dyskenesia.Realize that there is a risk of developing these when taking dopamine agonists (Wellbutrin is a weak D2 agonist).They are permanent conditions. No cure.
