Discontinuation Syndrome goes brrrrr… [Error, brain.exe has crashed because antidepressant.dll is not found]
regalia ( @regalia@literature.cafe ) 8•11 months agoI take medication and still panik, help pls
Seriously though, I didn’t take any meds the first 25 years of my life. After starting them, it literally changed my life and I wish I had started so much sooner. I would’ve had such a better life.
Carion ( @Carion@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz ) 8•10 months ago-I’m fine bro I’m cured
Proceed to discontinue the medication
-Oh no I’m actually dying
-End of meme-
Commentary.exe initializing…
Who would have guessed?
Jokes apart, I blame society for anxiety, being so fast paced and all.

seitanic ( @seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org ) 7•11 months agoUgh. I hate being dependent on medications, because they cost money and I have to remember to take them, but especially because I can’t drink any alcohol while I’m on them. But without them, my brain goes all flibbity-floobity.
NaoPb ( @NaoPb@beehaw.org ) 6•11 months agoThere’s nothing wrong with relying on medication. I just wanted to state that.
Don’t ever randomly stop taking medication. Always consult a doctor first.
Even with medication I am not in a good place right now. But I am glad I don’t have the thoughts of hurting myself thanks to the meds.
NightAuthor ( @NightAuthor@beehaw.org ) English5•11 months agoI stopped taking my meds at one point, won’t make that mistake again. At least not without some other major life changes, but probably not even then.
I’m hopeful for the psilocybin therapy bringing fruits in the coming years.
vsis ( @vsis@feddit.cl ) English3•10 months agoBro, just let’s smoke a joint. It’s natural, you know. Your pills are full of chemicals eww. /s
pd: “full of chemicals” also applies to food. Since natural food is made of antimatter, aparently.
fadingembers ( @fadingembers@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English3•11 months agoI’m having to come to terms that I can’t function without them. I tried to live off for four years off and it went okay for a short time but it just kept getting worse and worse despite doing everything in my power to not need them whether it was therapy, exercise, eating healthy or anything else
MonkderZweite ( @MonkderZweite@feddit.ch ) 3•10 months agoSo don’t stop taking the medicaments?
lorez ( @lorez@lemm.ee ) 5•10 months agoYou usually stop cos of side effects. I speak from experience. Been fighting anxiety and depression since 1996.
Asafum ( @Asafum@feddit.nl ) 2•10 months agoSame.
Panic attack, take meds, become zombie, stop meds, panic attack.
CBD has been a godsend though. It completely stopped my panic attacks for almost 2 years until just this last weekend. Not sure what triggered it this time.
lorez ( @lorez@lemm.ee ) 2•10 months agoI have generalized anxiety, no triggers, so I go under SSRIs, anorgasmia, stop. Rinse and repeat.
MonkderZweite ( @MonkderZweite@feddit.ch ) 2•10 months agoI see. My bad, sorry.
