what's wrong with your attitude? |

I've been on 20mg of fluoxetine a day for a couple of weeks... it's just kinda taking the "edge" off the depression at the moment. Apparently it takes a few weeks to kick in. I still feel worried, anxious and lonely, but i don't have the same pathetic crying fits. I know it's a poor solution, but my "herbal" medication seems to help more. |

As a relative newbie I send my wishes to all on meds here... I was wondering what the 'depression scene' on this board was like I figured it would be pretty high; not neccessarily a bad thing IMO. I think a lot of interesting people suffer from depression (I have been on effexor for going on 2 years... ahem). Good luck to you all. |

depression is sexy...... |
||||||||

oh Monoid... you rreally have to dig yourrself out of this hole. |

Depression is not sexy, it is not a lifestyle, it is a horrible state that makes you feel like a horrible person. Once you label yourself as "depressed", it's hard to shake off because you start to over-analyse every thought you have. You absolutely cannot define yourself by depression. It is not your personality. |

suicidegirls are sexy and they look depressed |

very true deepspace... I find there are no real redeeming qualities of depression, apart from the eventual recovery. It is a vicious circle. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that it is |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But you define your surroundings and envoriment thru your depression, therfore it is an "aesthetic" state of mind, which manifests itself in a kinda pseudo "lifestyle". |

Im a hermit, too. Mostly cause I live in the country. I haven't always. I was in cities and townships and much more sociable. Being a hermit crept up on me. You get more antisocial the more time you spend with yourself in your predictable environment. It's not good. It takes time to break, like a fever. |

i think in some cases a pill can help a lot, but in others it may not work at all. But I think the best treatment is a combination of both medication and counselling etc. ive been suffering from depression, anxiety and social anxiety for 3 years.Ive been on a few different medications; -cipramil didnt do anything for me. -avanza (mirtazapine) made my depression worse but didnt affect anxiety, but it made me put on 8-9 kilos and i found it extremely difficult to wake up to go to uni. So i missed a lot of uni. -and now im taking efexor, and seeing a psychiatrist and a cognitive therapist. But I havnt been taking efexor long enough to see the results yet. |

this thread is very interesting to me.. i'm not really an extremely depressed person.. or at least not consistently. .. i mean i may have a very violently powerful bout of sadness every few days, but i am good at suppressing it (maybe that's not a good thing) or expressing it in a healthy way.. i can usually eventually put life in general into perspective and realise that things aren't so bad for me and it can always improve if i give it a chance and some more effort.. but what's more bothering to me is a sense of not being able to control my own thoughts.. and not in a purely "high-low" emotion type of way.. sometimes i just get very strange, unwanted ideas or impulses that i can't really shake.. and it's not like they are often artistic or creative.. just weird and inexplicable.. i mean, i can always control myself, and i am a very "inhibited" type person.. but sometimes the most awful thoughts will go through my head and i can't make them leave.. like my brain is taunting itself in a way.. i can always ultimately "overcome" it, but it's like part of my brain is making cruel and abhorrent comments to itself.. like it makes me think of the most inappropriate things and then further embellish and deepen them the more i try to make them stop.. i don't know.. perhaps i am just making myself sound worse off than i really am.. but i just don't know how to describe it.. anyone else have any idea what i am describing? not that i want to label myself as having a certain personality-fault or disorder.. i'd just like to maybe shed a bit of light on it.. Errrr.. maybe,, never mind.. |

and neetta, if you dont feel 'healty' taking prozac, it might not be for you. But it would be best to talk to your GP or psychiatrist about how it makes you feel. Oh and i used to have pretty vivid nightmares multiple times a night, like really really bad ones. But I dont get them as much as I used to now, I still get them every few nights, which is a little over normal i think. Sorry I have to go to uni now, I will read through the whole thread after I get back and post a bit more. Thanks :) |

People who are depressed and paranoid probably shouldn't smoke weed. It might be the cause. Was for me. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Anyone tried a natural anti-depressant like St Johns Wort, supposed to be as effective as prozac but without the nasty side effects |
||||||||

nice thread/bump, and an interesting read |

i tried that for just over a month and didn't notice any real differences. bought some more recently and am going to give it another try for a longer period. what's been most helpful has been CBT |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yeah 6 bottles of CBT a day does the trick. |
||||||||
|
|

administered intravenously |

I like to think that smoking pot is a god anti depressant. But more so, its a tool to help moods that are anti-depressing from your own growth. If you have a mindset of, "Hey, I'm going enjoy life and find the good in everything and not associate with people who are even remotely involved with negative emotions," then you are already a positive person. If you want to be even more positive, smoke weed on top of that. It's like icing on the cake. Don't use weed as a means of "forgetting shit" or "Getting fucked up", use it as something that helps you be more creative and makes you want to work hard and focus on what it is you're doing. Say you want to be a body builder. Smoke weed and go to the gym. You'll enjoy the activity more than you would normally, plus you're doing what you want to make yourself happy. Its just a never ending cycle of positives. |

"Smoke weed and go to the gym" Dude, you seriously need to get some better weed O_o Smoke weed, laugh your ass off and eat a cake, then come talk to me about the benefits of some good greenery =op |

GURLLLLLL, I don't care much for names of weed, but apparaently, "Northern Lights", "Dansters Paradise", the really really green fluffy stuff that you can throw to a wall and it just sticks, I think thats good weed. And I get it whenever I'm in the mood for free. So I like to think I smoke good weed. But you know how when you're high, and you write music or do something in general, you think you're the best at it? Wait, that sounds too arrogant...you REALLY enjoy what it is you're doing, thats what I'm talking about. Alls I'm sayin is, do things that make you happy while high. It's a double anti-depressant! :D I jut meant go to the gym as an example. Its kinda fun to get stoned and go to an indoor court and hear all the beautiful reverberations and shoot hoops and try ridiculous shots and get good at basketball. |

I think in general after long term use it can end up being more of a depressant, especially with the majority of stuff going round these days. People are breeding for higher TCH content just to make it knock you out more, where a good smoke shoud always have a good mixture of TCH and canabanoids, that's what gives you a feel good factor ;o) |
||||||||

I can agree with that. It seems like weed is getting better and better everyday, different strains and whatnot, and yeah, because tolerance and need levels are increasing. Personally, I find it best to not get retarded stoned anymore, but you know, just get high so you can still enjoy stuff but not to the point of it distorting a sober life. As with all things so powerful, its gotta be used in moderation and with a positive mindset. Question for you: Blunts, joints, or glass? |
