*ruins your enjoyment of music*
>>129906228You think so? Elaborate, c'mon
>>129906228mirtazapine increases it, ask hayley williams
>>129906261not op but I recently quit lithium after a decade taking itnow the highs are higher and the lows are lowersome people prefer it this way
I feel like if I'd just tried to live with the grinding existential terror i probably would've killed myself. That would've impacted my enjoyment of music more.
>>129906350Yeah it’s called being a human
>>129906228>unironically taking those literal goypills
>>129906548yeah i take antidepressants ironically of course
I don't put chemicals that alter perception/brain chemistry in my body. There's no way that shit is actually helpful.
>>129906487Good point. I'm glad ur safe anon Lyfe's good despite all it's flaws I embrace it for ALL it is.
weed actually made me hate everything so much that I had to stop smoking it. I’d get so pissed I couldn’t enjoy doing anything.
>>129906228>makes you unable to cum
>>129906943coming off weed makes you cranky for a while.
>antidepressant>kills all enjoyment of ones life, sometimes even gives you that extra rizz to actually kystrololololSuch is (((psychiatry))) huh
>>129906585Ok mormon
>>129906961I don’t mean coming down from the high, I mean actually being high at all. Every song sounded like shit to me, games were all retarded and wastes of time, books were pointless because I couldn’t get immersed in the story without getting irritated at the way the author wrote, movies seemed extremely over the top fake, like what the fuck people actually watch this shit? Everything just pissed me off to no end. Being sober has fixed that entirely. It’s weird. I don’t take ssris either because those make everything feel flat and lifeless, and then you gain weight and get erectile dysfunction. Fuck that.

>>129907012yeah that's weird usually its the other way around
don't they put shit in those that makes it so you can't realistically get off of them without immediately going into psychosis and killing someone
>>129907031I wish it were. Most people don’t want to hear me bitch about everything though, surprisingly.
>>129907046no. But they dont """fix"""" you like advertised. Only you can fix yourself.
>>129907066bitch i speak from experience. before i managed to actually be an adult and leave my hometown i tried to stop taking that shit and it genuinely made me feel homicidal. like i felt intense rage and hatred for everyone i interacted with.
>>129907047I experience that but im a positive fella
>>129906228>falling for the pharmajewif you actually take (((anti depressants))) you deserve your enjoyment of music to be ruined
These meds literally only killed my dick. In fact, even after stopping them, my dick works at like 70% kek.
>>129906350Yeah I took antidepressants for some time, it was awful in some ways because it made my feel horrible (like you've described it leveled some of my mood flow considerably) and because they're expensive as hell and personally they took way more than a year to start acting noticeably, and that was like about 9 pills a day. But I felt better after some time and have remained so, hence I'm grateful for them for the push.
>>129906228>antidepressant side effects includenausea, weight gain, sleep disturbances (insomnia or drowsiness), sexual dysfunction, dry mouth, and increased anxiety or restlessness, particularly in the first few weeks. While many side effects subside, some—like sexual dysfunction or weight gainOP is unironically a fat and fag homosexual
>>129906228why would you ever take this shit? oh, cause you’re sad? maybe its becaue you sit around listening to elliot smith and nick drake. stupid fucks.
>>129907317It's gr8 that you recovered m8now let music heal you, just let Holy Melody carry you to higher dream worlds. There is a lot of wisdom in Melody.
>>129906228imagine taking dull meds instead of just touching grass
>>129907317>that was like about 9 pills a dayOH SAY CAN YOU SEEEEE
>>129907453what kind of grass?
>>1299075851997 Bubbah Kush got me out here arguing that St. Anger is a good album

>>129906487This. You will complain about anti-depressants but the alternative is much worse for a lot of people.
>>129906487SSRIs made me realize it's far better to feel up and down than it is to feel nothing at all. So i quit cold turkey. that was a rough seven months
I thought anti-depressants were suppose to make you feel better? I was thinking about them lately. I'm tired of feeling like shit every day.
>>129906487>>129907727This is going to sound extremely cold but I think some people should just genuinely kill themselves. You suffer from a mental disorder that makes you fundamentally incompatible with the very world you live in without completely blunting your emotions.
>>129907777i said i quit them you fuckin retard. wasted digits
Sometimes I miss being psychotic and hallucinating. I was insane but I was ~free~
>>129907841based
Why is everyone crazy here. Git gud o algo lmao.
>>129907758experiment a bit, they work for some and dont work for others. Just dont take retardedly high doses.
>>129907777Here is your (You). There you go attention.Nice Trips btw but wasted.
>>129907855don’t encourage me. I can kill people WITH MY FREAKIN MIND
>>129907874No I'm serious. And this is a problem I have with a lot of mental illnesses that are given a platform, is that your existence makes everyone else's lives worse. Schizos are always schizoposting, Cluster Bs are always Doomerposting and so on. Nobody wants to see you retards oversharing your lives. Nobody. And we also aren't a valid substitute for therapy. Either kill yourself or go outside and make actual friends.
>>129907044This reminds me of someone I know who took shrooms and then wouldn't shut the fuck up about the movie Moana for a month. It pretty much cemented my determination to avoid hallucinagens, i can (even on ssris) get enjoyment out of music and art but a lot of drugs make it where you can enjoy shitty disney movies and I really don't want that.
I never did SSRIs because I knew they were gay but I used to party on adderall and other uppers and then I tried Ketamine and it definitely neutered my enjoyment of music, always felt alcohol had a neutral if not neg effect on music enjoyment. One that rarely gets talked about is listening to music on acid, if you haven't done it you can't even begin to imagine what listening to music can really be like, completely envelopes all of your feeling and frame of mind and sense of existence like the music is the soundtrack to your ego. It became such a habit of mine I had like a list of 50 albums that were THE acid experiences. heres a few>MBV Loveless (and any good shoegaze really)>Van Morrison Astral Weeks>Tim Buckley Lorca>Trout Mask Replica (this was hilarious except for one song which was an instant bad trip)>Talking Heads Remain in Light>Parliament Funkentelechy vs Placebo>Built to Spill Perfect From Now On>Any of youre favorite Swans (for masters of bad tripping like myself)>Neutral Milk Hotel Aeroplane>Slint Spiderland>Pet Soundsif I do it again its gonna be Fare Forward Voyagers, gosh I wish I knew that way back
imagine being so weak of a human you need jewish drugs to keep you from killing yourself lmfao
>>129907727Amen, but then again I had massive depressive years but I did what it took to better myself, now I'm just a kratom addict with a good life otherwise but god knows if I got off I might return to depression
The opposite happened to me.
