>>77298865Do the smallest possible dosage so you can get the fuck off. I hated it and quit within a year and a half. You get very dependant on it
>>77299761It's true though
>>77298865With a car you can go anywhere
>>77298865DYLES could be here
>>77299797This.
>>77299742Prostate explosion? Am I at risk, guys? Am I in danger?
>>77298865have a bottle of these pills sitting at my drawer. I used to take them years ago since my psychiatrist diagnosed me with lmaodepression. Turns out, I am just a very anxious person. I cannot have a normal conversation without my mind picking up every micro-mannerism and trying to decipher it, many times unsuccessfully, some times successfully. With lexapro, that noise was completely gone. It also helped with "panic attacks", even though I'm not sure I fully qualify for having them. Observing yourself being tranquil in response to something that used to trigger a panic attack in the past is weird: your mind expects your heart to start racing but in the end nothing happens. very interesting feeling.On the downside, motivation was completely gone. I didn't enjoy programming or any kind of problem solving even though I used to take great joy at the things that the human mind can do. To make things worse, I didn't feel as sharp as I used to: some people call it brainfog and I can attest .I didn't experience any of this >>77299797. Eventually, I quit and tried to fix the shit that triggered the anxiety. But, you have to understand that everyone reacts differently to these kind of drugs, so take my experience with a grain of salt. Whatever you are going through anon, godspeed, wagmi.
>>77301688I’m the same way I will micro analyze everything and lock my self up like a wall. The lexapro helped me a lot but made it impossible to cum and that was something I was willing to do
>>77298865"Dindus could be here" he thought, "I've never been in this neighborhood before. There could be Dindus anywhere." The cool wind felt good against his bare chest. "I HATE DINDUS" he thought. Sweet Dreams are Made of These reverberated his entire car, making it pulsate even as the $9 wine circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of minorities after dark. "With a car, you can go anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud.
>>77301721do you still take it? how long? dosage?
Don't know what the rest of these retards are on about, obviously SSRI's are different for everyone but Lexapro fixed my life. Started on 10mg, didn't do much for three months. Doctor put me up to 15mg and that's when it got good. Went from feeling inhuman to feeling like I have a soul. So much of the worldly experience is colored by your internal experience of it. Obviously side effects for the first month or so and the adjustment period is rough but once you get going you get going. Also fixed my porn addiction lul.
>>77298865Youre in for massive regret in 5 years that you ever touched the stuff. Also brain zaps when you forget to take one or decide to quit. Its like your entire head fills with pressure and static for a second and you twitch like tourettes. Couldn't be more relieved I dont take anything anymore
>>77302660Well obviously you didn't need it and were incorrectly prescribed.I have a form of OCD that makes me analyze every internal emotion and ruminate endlessly on them, Lexapro was the only thing that fixed it
>>77303356> I have a form of OCDhow about not having an OCD you fucking retard? How about stop ruminating? How about you tell your brain to shut off and focus on the things that matter? You realize that you can control your brain, right? The only reason you have an OCD is because you have accepted this imaginary condition >Lexapro was the only thing that fixed itcongratz on limiting your mental capacity
>>77298865Who has the copypasta version
>>77303463Actually the only brain I have control of is yours for some reasom. Sorry about the damage I did, I swear it was an accident.
>>77303475>reasomOH FUCK HE'S GETTING HIS REVENGE
>>77299742>welcome to /fit/
If you have psychological support on the side, it can be beneficial. If no one is there to support you, it won't be great. The problem with these medications is that you need appropriate psychological follow-up with them.
>>77299797I’ve been on lexapro or Zoloft for fucking years and it doesn’t do anything except the emotional numbness which is of course why I take it because I seethe with rage without it.
>>77298865I miss those gas prices.
I wasn't able to get hard easily anymore and it took forever to cum and I felt content to waste my days away. The panic attacks stopped, but the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.
>>77303776I'm kind of amazed that cars used to run on milk back in the day
>>77301688you should try GABA instead
>>77303464literally >>77301762
>>77304298GABA’s absorption in the digestive track is dubious. It may benefit the gut bacteria but besides that, we don’t know if that benefit reaches the brain. Will say Fluvoxamine is the best of them. Proven to make you less retarded.May make you want to eat moar though
>>77301688Anxiety in general is actually your body always asking "what am I supposed to do in the eyes of the thing that guarantees meaning" so if u get anxiety in public it means u care waaaay too much pathologically even, what people think of you and trying to guarantee you look good or look like ur doing "what ur supposed to" or "not being cringe" leads to neurosis so I don't really have an answer for you but this is what it is.
>>77303463Rumination mostly comes from the attempt to have a guarantee. Since it's impossible to have a guarantee u can only enjoy pretending to have a guarantee. But what happens when reality meets your pretend fantasy? Well ur guarantee is in danger of collapsing your enjoyment of the fantasy of a guarantee is in danger of collapsing. So what you need to do is make a decision act on it without a guarantee and just go go go these are subtle structural things
>>77301288You ARE the danger anon. That thing has a blast radius of a couple meters at least
>>77303463I love this form of trolling
>>77298865I took it for anger management for a while. Used to have like panic attacks, but with rage. When it worked, it worked. But on occasion I suffered an interaction that suddenly canceled it out of my system. Like, I took antibiotics for a week and it negated the Lexapro. In those times I was suddenly cold turkey without any warning, which was worse than having never taken it at all. About got myself arrested for assault at a car dealership service desk once, screaming at customer service people on the phone, couldn't be around my kids (which was why I wanted it in the first place, for their safety).Weaned myself off and just learned to rise above the irritants in life. You're carrying a bucket around at all times, and you can fill it full of all kinds of stuff and be fine, but once it's full then any little thing will cause it to spill. I have to recognize when something is going to contribute to the bucket and sometimes just nope out of things, even if it's only internal. Have to let little things pop off here and there instead of carrying it around. Wife complains that I don't handle anger well, but then some days she does nothing but piss in my bucket.Two things that helped a lot were getting allergies dealt with and getting somewhere stable in career. Always walking around irritated by allergies kept the bucket full by default, and wife bitched at me constantly about everything until I got settled into a desk job with a paycheck that met her demands.
>>77304444I have this and it fucking sucks but I don't know how to get rid of it. It's like being hyper socially-aware is locked into my being because it was a social survival mechanism when I was in school (diagnosed autist)
>>77298865zoloft p much one-shot me into getting a DUI but fucking up my alcohol tolerance & I didnt care about anything so I just drank. also my dick didn't work for 2 weeks.some people are fine on it, it fucked me up.
>>77298865>picSeems like a pretty cool dude.
>>77306344Oh, and I only ever tried it at wife's urging. She talked me into seeing a therapist, which was stupid as fuck. That's for people that can't introspect on their own and need to have someone ask the leading questions they should be asking themselves. Then wife encouraged me to get on meds. She was honestly just afraid of me hurting her, despite my never once in all the time she's known me, even at my most angry, making a move like that. So medication, yeah, she thought that was a good idea.It took me years of marriage to realize that my wife genuinely doesn't understand the concept of thinking about how her actions affect other people's feelings. Like, she seems like a nice enough person, but she'll laugh at people when they're upset and has never once missed an opportunity to dogpile on talking shit about me right in front of my face. Who knows what she'll say when I'm not around, even, given what she'll say right in front of me. Average woman brain. Once I got that worked out, it really helped me dismiss a lot of her pissing in my bucket.
>>77298865Why do Americans always use brand name and not the real name for stuff? Anyway I have SSRI resistant depression so I've turned back to fitness and diet and other good life choices. Expect diarrhoea Mood swings Suicidal thoughts At least Imo, however the worst was SSNRI class. Never touch imo.
>>77306360Btw I actually turned back to heroin over SSNRI. That's how bad they were. Again just my opinion but don't turn to opiates either. No drug is going to fix anything better than getting to the root causes and being fit and healthy and safe. Don't give up.
>>77299742That post was mine from a few days ago. These are 2/3 of my dogs. The little cattle dog’s name is TALMUD (stylized in all caps), so named for her antisocial psychotic behavior. The black lab’s name is BBC (Big Black Canine). After explaining my dogs’ names a few times at the dog park everyone stopped talking to me except for a middle aged white guy who thought their names were great. Everytime I see him he is always smiling at me and we openly talk about the jews and have entertaining conversations, everyone else stays away. I think I won. Today the dog park, tomorrow the world
>>77298865Why would you willing put an ssri into your body?
>>77303463how about not having schizophrenia you fucking retard? How about stop hallucinating? How about you tell your brain to shut off and focus on reality? You realize that you can control your brain, right? The only reason you believe the CIA is putting cameras in your apartment is because you have accepted this imaginary condition>lithium was the only thing that fixed itcongratz on limiting your mental capacity
>>77306358>almost get arrested for assault>so angry you scare your own kidsYah I wonder why she was afraid of you fucking retard lmao
>>77298865I’ve seen psych meds do nothing, turn people from complete schizo losers into functional members of society (me), or turn somewhat normal people into complete zombies. The human mind is exceedingly complex, and medication affects people so individually that crowd sourcing anecdotes is pointless. Keep a journal, and quickly jot down how you feel everyday. If your dick stops working and you feel like shit after ~2 months, switch drugs.
