Reminds me of "Requiem For A Dream"...

Originally posted by Matt I've been on Celexa since May 2002. It's a small dose (20mg/day), but it works wonderfully, so there was never a reason to up the dose. Basically, it just increases your uptake of serotonin into the brain. It is not a HUGE increase (like MDMA). It usually takes 1-2 months to take any kind of effect. Note however that MDMA and alcohol conflict with most anti-depressants, so be ready to give both up.

I'm on 60mg a day of that. I'm not great on it but i'm a bit better than on nothing at all. I've had a few side effects with it, mainly sickness, it takes me ages to get going in mornings, however it doesn't do as much for me as it could, meaning I have to take valium if going to a lot of places, but not regularly, maybe once every couple of months

I've been on a few:
20mg Prozac (Sept 03 - Jan 04)
Efflexor (Tried for a few days in Jan 04, side affects were making me sick)
30 mg Seroxat (Jan 04 - June 04)
20mg Prozac (June 04 - Present)

Seriously...Seroxat is the devil! It made me feel better for 2 weeks or so...then it slowly dragged me down. While taking them it felt like i had a split personality because one min i'd be fine and happy, then i'd get really upset, have pannic attacks, hyperventilate. It really changed who i am as a person.
Back on good old reliable Prozac now.
Another thing you can try is a Bach Flower treeatment called Rescue remedy. If your feeling worked up/stressed out you put 4 drops on your tounge and you go Completely Mellow! Its good stuff.

i myself have never been clinically depressed or in need of drugs to make me feel better, but i can imagine it wouldnt be fun at all.

My heart goes out to all of you, seriously, as long as you are taking these for legit reasons.


feel happy

Yarr matey, yee know thee score

Seriously, all natural and no side-effects, worth giving a go before stuff that does large alterations to your brain's chemical make-up

O.K I want two things:

1. links to articles about suicides linked to anti depressants

2. natural alternatives ie. vitamins, foods, etc. even if it's things to cut out eating and whatnot.
