[@luvlycyn]

Currently on sertraline 25mg for my anxiety and ocd. I’m 34 years old and I can truly say that it has helped me immensely, I’ve had only positive thoughts. I’m the happiest I have ever been in my whole entire life. My mind is finally calm and quiet. 🙏

so amazing. Or you still good? I started 2 days ago. Kinda scared hehe:)

[@LucasPenido]

I started taking 50 MG in late (dec 2019) after having a burnout from work and the pressures of life. I still felt somewhat sad, and had some bad thoughts (against myself) so she upped my dose to 100Mg, and after that I went through the Pandemic, a divorce, and a few other challenges and none of these thoughts came back! I’m a christian, and strongly believe in medicine, since in my opinion, God blessed humans with knowledge to develop medicine, in other to help and cure certain conditions. I hope one day I don’t need to take it, but will do as long as its needed

[@joeyag9082]

Thank you for this post Lucas. I am a newly devoted christian and I have been struggling with depression and anxiety heavily as of recent. It's affecting my day to day life and i was recommended this by my doctor. I was hesitant on taking it because I feel guilty on taking this as a christian but your comment made realize that medicine is a gift from god and decided to go through with it. Thank you and god bless!

[@phoenixflamegrillandbar8219]

If god gave us the power to develop medicine like anti depressants why did he wait hundreds of thousands of years of human life on earth to only let us develop these medicines now. Just a question, I’ll be intrigued to know your thoughts

⁠@@phoenixflamegrillandbar8219Ezekiel 47:12 (and many other places). God has always encouraged humans to advance medicine, and use his creation for the betterment of human kind. While medicine has changed drastically between then and now, it has always been a key part of human development and advancement. It’s not like God “allowed” us to do so just now, rather he encouraged us since the beginning. Hope this answers your question, God bless you and have a nice week!🙏🙏

Update: I bumped to 50mg one month then to 75mg the next month you have to be able to find your perfect medium, I noticed that I would get kinda irritable when it was not working for me. Now that I’m on 75mg I feel like this is my perfect medium and keeping it this way I’m not bumping up anymore. Not everyone is the same so you have to pay attention to how you feel, to know what you feel is best for you. And don’t be scared to ask for a higher or lower dose. It’s really ok. I’m a mom of two young boys and a wife. Irritability is a big no no in my life. We got to be positive and strive to get better for ourselves.

Ive been taking Zoloft for about a year now. My anxiety had peaked over the pandemic, my job, and a the sudden war in Ukraine. Im lower my doeses now, because i think it is also causing me to have some lack of motivation. But i think overall, it has really helped me.

[@scarrrizzle]

I'm 31 years old and on Day 4 of 25mg loading. I felt it within the first hour of taking it (I also spared no time after getting the prescription and took it at 12 noon). I feel like I can actively think for myself now versus being perpetually bombarded with multiple thoughts at once. I find that I'm also responding emotionally quicker to my thoughts, which makes me feel more present in my own body. The anxiety that lived primarily in my solar plexus caused tightness and shallow breathing, but on Zoloft, I can recognize when I would typically be having a lot of anxiety there and now it feels loose; it is a different sensation. I 100% prefer the burpiness I have now over the rigidness I had in my gut before lol. As I told my doctor, I never ever thought I'd be interested in anti-anxiety medication, but sometimes we don't choose what we experience in life, and it has been such a huge help in a little matter of time.

I've been on Sertraline for 4 years now and I've been on the same dosage (75 mg) for about 2 years now and it finally isnt working to its full anymore.

Thanks 🙏

[@gimmiekiwi]

Im going to start it soon. Im 16, and first starting with 50 mg of quatiapune (i think thats how you spell it) and its supposed to help me ease into the med with less bad side effects. Im very nervous, but im too afraid to search up what zoloft will do when i first start it, as i want to focus on the good. Im mainly curious... will i become a zombie almost? Or more hyper? (I also have adhd)

Only 1 dose i taken but scared 😱 to continue

I’ve been on Zoloft for 4 weeks and idk why I’m not feeling a difference.

[@millie7642]

has it been helping you yet? I'm only 2 weeks in but havent felt any difference yet either!

[@danielle7368]

Struggling to not go back on this because it does help but you will lose your sex drive, your empathy, your ability to care, you won’t relate to sad songs you won’t feel you’ll stay in a numb state of an ok feeling weigh up if your ok with that seek some alternatives first this should be last resort action

Wow... im reading the comments & seeing how low the dose people are taking... i was taking 200mg for a while. Recently i dropped down to 150mg still kind of have panic attacks but im also doing breath work & exercises. I really hope one day I can go under 100mg. I dont want to take pills anymore.. but i still want to function.. i honestly didnt know i was that bad..

But that's not the best option buddy.

What causes the deficiency in neurotransmitters? I think of depression as being very sad. Can any internal factors cause depression even if I’m not going through any sad “situation”

[@CarmineGotSnip3d]

Depression is not being sad. Depression is a hollowness within yourself.

[@PixelLife101]

Yes, depression can be caused by bad brain chemistry. IE if you take MDMA too often or too much you can overstimulate your receptors or use up your serotonin reserve (though this builds back in a week typically). Supposedly bad diets can affect your mood too, which wouldn't be surprising since the serotonin has to be produced out of the nutrients we eat. Though its dubious to say how effective a diet could be or even a supplement could be.

[@bluesmurff6163]

Genetics can cause depression (it's more common among members of the same family), also being sick, having an injury can lead to depression. There is a lot of factors

[@cnb1243]

Modern Utopia your example of taking mdma is so true. I have taken mdma and when you come down whewwwwww you feel like your ready to end your whole life. I do believe a lot of “uppers” are like this because you get so “high” that when you come down you really come down

[@PixelLife101]

@@cnb1243 Yeah I find that Cannabis is the best cure for most hangovers, adds some euphoria and removes any aches and pains you may feel. Though I hear weed isn't pleasurable for everyone

What is my guarantee that those who write positive reviews about the drug (Zoloft) are not actually sales representatives of the pharmaceutical company that produces this drug? On the other hand, what is my guarantee that those who write negative opinions about this drug are not sales representatives of pharmaceutical companies for which this drug (Zoloft) is a competitive product taking the market away from them? Conclusion: what is my guarantee that the opinions about this drug presented here are reliable?

[@fervidreader5748]

I started taking it a month ago and it’s already transformed my mindset and emotions for the better. It’s about trial and error, you never know how it’ll affect you until you personally try it
