SSRI’s and Benzos are EXTREMELY dangerous dependence forming drugs promoted as “healthy” and will rob years of your life.

Elaborate, my little bro is being put on them after trying to kill himself and ending up in the psych ward.

They rewire your brain so you can’t stop taking them. They can take years to quit. If you ever want to get off them, the withdrawal will be 100x worse than your original depression.

They shrink the area of the brain involved with impulse control. They made me an addict and destroyed my memory completely. My life feels like a blank slate. They erased my entire identity.

I tried to quit mine cold turkey and got brain damage.

They are extremely dangerous.

ssri's are made so you can get back to work, they dont help with living an actual fulfilling life

I see this same schizo thread every time I look on /adv/ there is no way it isn't a bot

>>33313908
absolutely true

>schizo
Bot word, so lets not pretend that you are not bot yourself.

>>33313908
Okay, so do they help you get back to work by giving you brain damage?

>>33314437
Maybe idk about the brain damage stuff I just know how they feel

>>33314456
okay bro, well they cause brain damage, i hope you’re cool with that.

>>33314534
why would i be cool with that

>>33314562
Thats the point. These drugs are fucking evil and extremely dangerous.

I've literally never encountered a doctor or mental health professional who said benzos were healthy or for anything other than temporary treatment of cancer pain or extreme panic attacks

>>33312049 (OP)
Benzos have only improved my life, but I do fear getting off them.

Yes. 100% agreed.

>>33313908
Absolutely this. I took them for a few years just to force myself not to lose a high paying job. I'm glad I'm off them now and I still managed to keep my job. They stopped me from wanting to kill myself but also stopped me from feeling emotions, bring creative, having fulfilling relationships, basically everything that made me human.

What advice do you need? I have one for you: take your meds and stop spamming the same thread multiple times a week

>>33315181
I thought so, the first few times. Now I have grown to respect that OP is on a mission to make a difference in the world.
>>33312049 (OP)
Maybe change your approach. I kinda want to try these drugs now.
