spiritual implications of being put on SSRIs, i just got put on them
I’m very much of the mentality that they aren’t forever. If you’re really struggling and it’s the difference between life and death, especially because of how difficult and stressful life can be these days, take them and put extra care into your worship, prayer, meditation, etc. It will definitely put you back on the right path that eventually you can get off of them and live your life. Spiritually speaking, I do believe they hinder the mind from its full potential, but hindrance doesn’t mean the potential is gone forever. Take care anon

>>41345939the schizo tweakers will tell you that make you a sleeper cell.Try em out. If you dont like it you can stop without any permanent effects. They work real well for a lot of people
Do NOT go cold turkey off them, taper off when ready to quit.
>>41345939You can be spiritual on SSRIsIn fact if they help regulate you or help you feel better it may help your spirituality.

>>41346008This.
>>41345939I just stopped taking my Zoloft, I feel fine. If you are really fucked up and want to die or whatever, they will help alot. If its only antidepressants whats the harm.Im also still on a mood stabilizer that keeps me from wanting to rip people a new asshole. I have the mentality that I am too powerful to be alive without bumping myself down a notch, kek.also>asking for /x/ schizo opinions on your own medicationsISHYGDDT
>>41345939my advice is stop taking them. you need a healthy diet and exercise, not SSRIs. doctors are are, at best, incompetent retards, at worst, deranged cultist pill pushers. ive taken SSRIs for depression, didnt help ultimately. Then my dick stopped working properly for a while and months after I stopped taking it. Prozac is the worst SSRI on the market, its absolute dogshit, Ive tried many different SSRIs, prozac is the worst one imo, just plain ineffective. I think SSRIs should only be used in cases of extreme mental anguish to mitigate trauma, and should only be used for one or two months max. Any other reason, like mild depression, low mood, is not a justifiable reason to take SSRIs. The one I was using was citalopram, it makes you feel "high" and makes you stop ‘feeling’. It is best to just develop emotional strength within, in fact its the only way, the notion that you can fix your emotional state with a chemical is a scam, you must learn to control your energy from within, consciously. This requires deep focus in a relaxed state (what is known as prayer or meditation), inward focused on your solar plexus, which is the centre of your energy field, that must be purified with the Holy Spirit.
Prozac is great. It does numb you a bit, but without it I'd be an over-emotional wreck. I feel mentally stronger with it. Happier, less anxious. Does kill the sex drive though but I'm doing SR so it helps.
>>41350881>christcuck>doesn't believe in medicineI agree about SSRIs, they've been given out like candy because they are cheap. There are other medical options however. Some that don't even involve a pill.
>>41345939You do not want or need to be on that. It will not help you. It is going to hurt you and your doctor is either ontologically evil or a contemptible fool with absolutely zero in-between.
>>41345939>Chemical castrationGet off them anon.
>>41348644Let anon experience the brain zaps. Only then will he realize how much they were fucking with him
>>41345939It didn't hinder my spiritual activities.Think of it like this, can a pill overpower God?
I'm addicted to Effexor / Venlafaxine. It's not fun. Tapering off takes ages.
>>41345939spiritual implications of being put on SSRIs, i just got put on them>lucid dream becomes all fucked up>can't astral projection properly There is reasons why great part people of people on SSRI abandon treatment after 1 and half year, on average

Speaking from experience, SSRIs simply make you more able to bear a shitty life, they do nothing to fix the shittinessThey also prevent you from using psychedelics - these help you see your shitty life in a different light and might help you find solutionsI cold-turkey stopped Prozac after 10 years (to try psychedelics) and the zombifying side effects of stopping were insane
>>41350975Unfortunately you may be right
>>41350975what are brainzaps?
>>41348690>tweaker in question
>>41345939The government and apparatus would rather you be on something that flattens your edges and screws up your metabolism than worry about what you might do in your darkest moments. That is their position. You need to decide what works for you and pursue that regardless of even the best intentioned suggestions.
>>41349768What mood stabilizer are you on? I have a similar mentality and also want to rip people a new asshole. Also, I'm inclined to think that I may have some form of epilepsy and a lot of mood stabilizers function as antiepileptics
>>41345987Agree. Wellbutrin helped me for a time. Now I'm off them, no withdrawal either and with my new habits and outlook i gained while on I am doing much better
>>41350975Wait till he finds out about akathisia and derealisation/depersonalization and starts praying for a quick death
>>41351015Can a pill or vaccine block an individuals connection with god? Probably.
>>41345939Was on them for about a year, realized I had bad untreated ocd. Be careful with them cause they can make you feel "too good" sometimes, but I was paralyzed by my thoughts before I got on them and afraid of just about everything.
>SSRIyou dun fucked up. stop taking it asap. never take SSRI/SNRI class drugsaside from the mental lobotomy. these drugs can unironically give you lifelong erectile dysfunction even after you take them.
>>41352018>what are brainzaps?Imagine snapping your fingers and for a second or two, your brain has an instant migraine pain like "zap." It could feel like your whole head at once, or it travels from temple to temple.Now imagine you never snapped your fingers at all, and your brain randomly does this while on ssri's/series.Source: started with Lexapro, moved on to adding buspirone, then transitioned to only desvenlafaxine. It doesnt help at all when youre natural prone to migraines beforehand anyways.>>41351579>Speaking from experience, SSRIs simply make you more able to bear a shitty life, they do nothing to fix the shittinessThis, OP. Im tapering off my desvenlafaxine at the moment, as another anon said it just helps you perceive everyone and every event as less annoying. >They also prevent you from using psychedelics - these help you see your shitty life in a different light and might help you find solutionsOnce I was finally off Lexapro and buspirone, and had time in-between ending those and starting desvenlafaxine, had my first mushroom trip (2-3g). I do plan on trying microdosing crushed shrooms (.75g)in capsules. Life looked more beautiful in the days after stopping them, so I look forward to seeing how microdosing can help.If other anons have microdosing advice, I'd like to know. Not sure if the schedule should be daily or like a few days on and a few off kinda thing.
>>41354529>ssri's/series>ssri's/snri's
>>41354529We have zoochosis and these pills are making us accept otherwise unacceptable human living
>>41353291Seroquel
>>41354629All roads lead back to Ted I suppose.Though Im not looking forward to the jump from 25mg to zero, (desvenlafaxine is one of /those/ snri's, can't even cut the pill), I can't wait for when the withdrawls stop and I can start microdosing.
>>41352018A zap in your brain
Get off them, detox properly from them, and do psilocybin instead. 2.5 g every 2 weeks.
https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2206443Check this out. Now mind you the 2.5 grams of dried mushrooms applies to treatment resistant cases. If you aren't treatment resistant, less, like 1 gm, might be effective I only think it's safe for depression. If you are bipolar, it could spike manic episodes. In that case, try smaller amounts, like .2 gm, proceed with caution, and only use in depressive episodes. Or avoid completely
>>41357814would taking a variety of different meds and never feeling any different either on or off be considered treatment resistanti assume yes is the answer
>>41357824>would taking a variety of different meds and never feeling any different either on or off be considered treatment resistant>i assume yes is the answerYah, that's treatment resistance.
>>41357773>just do psychs broo
Do the undisputed king of anti depressants, anti psychotics, stimulantscrystal mother fucking methamphetamine.Instead of prozac.
>>41345939>spiritual implicationsI guess they could make it more difficult to do shadow work, particularly clearing negative emotions, if they blunt your ability to even feel them. If, say, you have a negative circumstance that repeats in your life, and is tied to a particular negative emotional state, then it may be that it repeats for longer because you can no longer think and feel through each iteration, in order to clear it. I know it's not appropriate for everyone, given the circumstances and the responsibilities that they might have, but just diving straight into the agony is the quickest way to clear it. By prolonging the process you are making the pain last longer for yourself. Use it to deal with the acute phase only and then come off of them. Or at least have a concrete plan for coming off of them, combined with some kind of therapy or work. Imagine being one of those people who are on them for life.
>>41345939Brother, the power of Christ cannot be limited by anything, he is still there for you as long as you accept him.In my non medical opinion, try them out slowly, pay attention to your thoughts incase you have an adverse reaction. Set small goals to get off of them in a resonable amount of time, talk with a therapist and pastor/priest. As always, prayer is always good
I stopped using them because they didnt make me happy just numb. which wouldve been fine but they also made my PP not work so good.Ill just be morbidly depressed with my fully functional PP.
>>41345939fuck with this idk
>>41345939>spiritual implications of being put on SSRIsThe purpose of psych drugs usually is to block out emotional pain. This being America this is passed off as "medicine". Blocking out massive emotional pain will in fact have catastrophic consequences on your spiritual development.
