I think this medicine is actually working. My window of tolerance has opened noticeably. Life feels so much lighter. Dare I say, I'm actually feeling happy. I don't worry nearly as much about shit that doesn't matter. This is amazing.

"He was going to be screened for psychosis... He's on sertraline that is an anxiety med..." And he struggled with homicidal thoughts until he gave in? I've googled this before when I suffered psychosis and homocidal thoughts when I was taking sertraline, and there was one girl who got off on an insanity plea for her homicidal thoughts on setraline and others have shared their experiences of homicidal thoughts on sertraline, but its not big enough symptom to be on the bottle as its not mass reported or anything ig?
But after I made the connection I got on a different med and the homicidal thoughts stopped. I still have delusions but I've always been that way and avoided thoughts well, but I'm not losing touch like I was when I had Psychosis. It's a serious concern; watch out for dark thoughts on Sertraline.

its great because my antidepressants are working and i have more energy and motivation and less stress and stuff but also, plot twist, under the depression I am also a shell of a human being so now i'm sitting here unable to feel sadness but very self aware and knowing that there's no reason for me to be alive

Guess who's finally* joining the SSRI club?
This bitch 👋
I am starting tomorrow and while I am feeling really positive and optimistic about the meds overall and the potential benefits I will experience from them, I am currently just terrified of the settling in period and side effects. I made this decision because I need to regain some control of my life, so facing the prospect of the next several weeks being much worse..... not good.
Please send me your positive SSRI/sertraline stories! ❤️

inside you there are two wolves
one of them is laughing hysterically at the thought of a joke they heard twelve hours ago
the other is ferociously screaming at somebody for breathing in their direction
you are adjusting your antidepressant dosage

October 2021. i lost my grandma. this was hard. it was the first close family death for me.
January 2022. i fell down my stairs and injured my spine.
February 2022. i started pain medicine and physical therapy.
March 2022. the pain was excruciating. medicine and physical therapy weren’t helping. so i had to take a leave from work. i had a spinal injection, which also didn’t help.
May 2022. i had spinal surgery.
June 2022. i had my one month follow up with my surgeon, and lost my job and insurance. my anxiety grew.
July 2022. i got engaged. i applied for state insurance so i could follow up with a surgeon again and start post surgery physical therapy.
September 2022. i finally got state insurance, saw a new primary care physician, and was prescribed zoloft for my increased anxiety and depression due to the events that had unfolded.
October 2022. i started physical therapy. we celebrated my grandmas one year. then our family dog passed away from cancer.
November 2022. i decided to stop zoloft because i didn’t like the way it made me feel. it’s been 9 days since stopping and it’s unlike anything i could have ever imagined. the withdrawal symptoms are really bad for me. i’m having panic attacks. i’m breaking down at random times. my insecurities are chipping away at my confidence. i feel like i’m fighting a never ending battle with my demons. but i know i can get through this. i have to. i refuse to let this tear me down. this has to get better.

feel like these sites just let any damn therapist put lgbt+ under their specialties bcus I still cannot get over me filling out the consultation request form like "hi I'm a nonbinary person specifically looking for an inclusive/experienced therapist *legal name for insurance purposes* *chosen name*" only to get a call for the consult itself like "hi is this *legal name*?"

Admin note: I’m 20 years old, but I was diagnosed with adhd when I was 8 years old and have been taking my adderall prescription to treat it for over 10 years. In January I was perscribed Zoloft for generalized anxiety disorder. this post is about my experience taking Zoloft and Adderall and how it’s been affecting me …current dosage is 20mg Adderall and 75 mg Zoloft
What I’m like on my meds:
no adderall + no zoloft: absolute disaster, scattered, dissociating, always getting distracted ZERO motivation, no energy, unintentionally skipping meals, neglecting basic self care, more irritable, crying almost every night, no impulse control, intrusive thoughts, suicidal ideation
just adderall, no zoloft: still a little anxious but it’s the kind of anxiety that motivates someone with adhd (iykyk) so I’m actually able to focus and quickly finish tasks at the last minute with inevitable distractions
no adderall, just Zoloft: less anxious but feeling numb, ‘no thoughts, head empty’, dissociating, intrusive thoughts, suicidal ideation, self harm,
adderall + zoloft: weirdly enough, when I take both medications together, they seem to work against each other or at least counter some effects. I started Zoloft in January so basically all of 2022 (so far) has felt like my anxiety is slowly and inevitably consuming me and I’ve noticed that Zoloft is negatively impacting/interfering with the effects of my adhd medication.
I’ve been taking adderall to treat my adhd since I was 8 or 9 years old and there’s a noticeable difference between my behavior when my meds are doing their job and my behavior once they wear off. Taking adderall first thing in the morning has been essential to my daily routine for most of my life so starting Zoloft this year and dealing with how both medications interact with each other has been a frustrating process.
Seasonal depression is finally going into hibernation until November rears it’s ugly head and the weather starts getting shitty again.
Regardless of whether I just remember to take my Adderall, Zoloft or both, it’s always hard to escape the intrusive thoughts. The fact that my mind had the potential to be this quiet all along is a little unsettling, but it’s nice to finally hear myself think for once without a million other thoughts simultaneously racing through my mind.
