I take ot for about 40 days now.

Didn't really help my at all, i even take the good parhma stuff from BAYER. 900mg a day.

Maybe it puts the mood up a LITTLE, not so many paranoid thoughts, but beyond that it isn't worth the money i think.

No, but looking at pic related of me might help

There is no medical treatment for depression. SSRI is the current approach and you can ask any patient on those pills how they feel about it. This shit that you suggest is more like snake oil, there is no real evidence of ANY effect whatsoever on the human brain. Depression is a hard thing to treat medically as the chemical balance of ones brain is FAR from static and also changes from person to person. Until there are developments in brain monitoring from home there will be no advancement in this field.

Nope, maybe a bit at first but you quickly realize it'd just a placebo effect.

I've never understood the hate on SSRI's. They've definitely helped me. As for the side effects I've just been on them too long to know (9 years, since I was 11)
>>
Honestly I get that this doesn't work for some people but for me, it does

Shitload on vitamin C. NO rose hips

Isn't the spread of that information irresponsible since it robs people of a very real effect on their body?
>>
>>34031641
Its grossly overprescribed.
>>
>>34031641
its likely that you're just lucky. SSRI medication is mass produced under only one formula, so you can see how many many people end up with all the negative side effects and still feel fucked in the brain even after years on the stuff. I dont know much about brain chemistry, but I assume that the scientists that designed this drug made it with the intention of helping as many people as possible, also knowing full well that there is no way a single formula can treat depressive brain chemistry for everybody.
so the hate really just comes from people who have suffered under use of the drug, not really understanding the meaning behind it all. sometimes people even think that this medicine was made just for them, when in reality it is a product that is for sale, to make profit.
people really do suffer on the stuff, and while i know it does help people, i feel it is irresponsible to just "try it out" on everybody who wants to buy it.

>actually don't combine psychedelics with antidepressants

Was on them for like 10 years until 6 weeks ago.
Felt sick every single day, felt anxious and depressed as fuck... decided to quit cold turkey and not felt so good mentally in a decade.
Tried every single kind over 10 years.

They will work for some people, but evidently for me they were doing more harm than good.
