Why? I used to, but no antidepressant helped. Adderall helped a lot for productivity and mood, but it was too addictive for me and I'd binge my prescription in a week or two.
I think I suffer from depression ever since I was 16 and my mom died, unfortunately I just supress everything and work through the motions even have a serious career
>>212566825 Psychiatric treatment in its essence consists of psychotherapy plus substance therapy aka meds, but they're completely independent if you're powering through it then great, but you can try psychotherapy without any medication if you think you might not to. Reaching a point of collapse is never desirable
I was given fluoxetine and other drugs throughout middle school and highs school. I love my parents but putting me on any kind of psychiatric drugs is something I can never forgive them for

>>212567483 Fuck off retard, giving your child mild-altering drugs instead of actually addressing why they are depressed or anxious is bad parenting. I am convinced that garbage has permanently given me minor brain damage

I remember being given benzos and they triggered a manic episode, I was up for three days straight and they had to inject me with anti-psychotics to calm me down enough to sleep.
I spent two weeks after that in an armchair. I was just that fucked, I don't know how meth addicts do it.
But basically any psyche med isn't worth it unless you really have to.
