  So taking this would be all side effects and no benefits

  So it’s basically the same as Prozac? 😩

    If you have depression anxiety and find that Prozac (an ssri) doesnt work well, you might consider something that directly works on dopamine - like Buproprion (brand name = wellbutrin, a NDRI, norepinephrine dopamine reuptake inhibitor).

      I was a bit of not interested and not educated enough to know what a NDRI was while I was on it but it does make sense for ADHD and Depression symptoms.

      The withdrawal from Wellbutrin was bad. I got brain zaps if I was 1hr late taking it; tapering and cessation was miserable.

        I have gone off a few times over the years and didn’t experience many side effects/withdrawals, but that is definitely not always the case - I’ve heard that it reeeaaally does not work for some people. Ymmv

      This is obviously anecdotal, but fuck Wellbutrin. It didn’t help, and it triggered tinnitus, which didn’t go away after I stopped taking it. Still happening 2 years later. I’m one of the lucky 3-6% Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

        I’m sorry you experienced that. Personally I love Wellbutrin.

        Sorry that happened. I get relatively minor tinnitus, but these exercises have helped. Dude’s a chiropractor, but this particular stuff is not chiropractic and is legit. The thing that helps me is the palms on ears and drumming with fingers on the back of your head (like 50% through the video or so)

      SNRIs are also an option, but they can be worse to get off of than heroin.

        I was on Effexor XR Max Dose, and one day when I realized that it had effectively killed all feelings I stopped cold turkey, zero side effects. My doctor thinks I have a very high drug tolerance, to the point that anything I’m put on nowadays is just started at close to the max dose. I’m on a drug right now that is prescribed at a level that would normally result in death for most people, and he thinks I can go higher if I need to.

        Downside is pain drugs don’t work, at all. He told me they’d need to give me IV pain meds if I really needed any pain suppression.

    I realize this isn’t serious but holy shit Prozac might have saved my life. Well, technically Prizma which is the same stuff. I went through so many unsuccessful depression treatments, Prizma is the only one that seems to be sticking. Sometimes the old stuff is just the best.

    Worth noting that all treatments were in conjunction with psychotherapy, I don’t think pills alone would have helped. And I also tried going without medication at all for a while, it wasn’t good either. Prizma really is the only thing that works for me.

      You say the old stuff but fluoxetine was released in 1986 and citalopram in 1989 - before that you were boned. A few antidepressants existed and they were even worse than what we have today.

  Maybe they can offer a two for one deal with lobotomy?

  They remove the “problematic” part and install a new, dopamine rich part.
