I don't want to be on antidepressants for the rest of my life. It's so much more satisfying to overcome anxiety minus the meds. But it's fucking hard to do

[@saniyasadaf-sm1sv]

There is a plant called senna...if anybody accidently fell into taking these anti-depressants in their life and just want to get back to who they were just take senna leaves with tamarind and you are good old you. prophet muhammad (peace be upon him ) told about this plant/leaves that it has cure for every disease except death . you just have to remove those medications outta your bloodstream which actually makes you sick also those- wthdrawal symptoms-_- please people stop taking these medications its gonna harm you.take any health supplements you want for life but just DO NOT disturb the state of your mind by taking any mind stimulating shit not even alcohol..your mind knows how to heal itself it be any emotion or drama.

It requires a radical rework of your life and mindset and a enormous amount of time, effort, patience, and discipline, and even then there will be relapses. "Hard" doesn't even begin to describe it.

[@jazzyj2243]

I totally agree with you! Most people just want the quick fix, a magic pill, instead of put in the work in therapy, which is crucial to healing all mental health problems.

[@GetPsyched]

I agree in many ways. Anti depressants can be really helpful though. And a great addition to therapy

[@swopeboi]

[@suzsiz]

Your accent alone can cure depression 😁✌️🤓

[@Anonymous-gm8gm]

The chemical imbalance theory is a myth...? Have you read James Davies' Cracked? Great podcast about it with The Weekend University as well.

[@Slazerable]

Bupropione dosn't have many side effect - no emotional blunting, no sexual dysfunction, it does even improve libido and frequency of intercourse. Helps with anxiety too, allegedly. The side effects tend to disappear with continued usage, currently I experience none. The addiction potential is abysmal, withdrawal is easy. Now why would I not use this drug? I there something I overlooked? I have not FUCKED a day in my life because of my condition and I would KILL for anything that would aid me to achieve this goal.

[@usha4345]

No

[@Polecat-qz5om]

Nooo
