Choosing the correct antidepressant

Anti depressents WILL cause more depresion once you quite from chemical imbalances. If you take them. Only do it when you're severly depressed. Out of alcohol detoxification for 60 days and for the first 30 i was severely depressed to the point of contemplating suicide because of chemical imbalances in my brain and body. I would highly recommend looking for healthier solutions then taking somthing thats forcing receptors to pump. Depressents and anti depressents both do the same thing after regular use and you don't want to deal with that shit.

How about as a fucking medical professional? It's literally their job to figure out what meds are best for your problems.

I take Zoloft 200mg (which is a lot) and I didn't really pick it but have had the option to change multiple times. Way I figure, if it works don't change it. Also it is pretty rough to start a new one and I don't want to risk having worse physical effects or suicide. The highest risk of suicide is when starting a new antidepressant. Just talk to your psychiatrist and they will tell you what the latest-greatest is and the risks. They are pretty cheap. I get mine for $12 a month on my insurance.

And what makes you think the "professional" will give me the right drug? Most people have to try out a few different drugs before getting the right one for them. I am just asking for advice and experiences and I am able to. You seem to be really thick! I bet your life is shit, like mine.

It's up to you to communicate how you feel to the doc. If a drug is working, all they can ask is if you are having any negative symptoms and if they seem to be working. Just be honest.

Thank you! These seem to be some important facts. Sadly I don't have access to a psychiatrist because of my personal circumstances (no, i'm not underage).
