I was wondering why some of my friends were not reacting, then I remembered most of them are on antidepressants. I’m starting to think too many antidepressants users out there, and many of them probably take them because they can’t deal with the state of the world.
MAJOR DISCLAIMER THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE THIS IS MY OWN EXPERIENCE
There’s that, and there are a lot of chemical imbalances that are covered up by SSRIs. I have a MTHFR (MoTHerFuckeR gene yes the capitalization is important) (dear gods I’ve typed that phrase so many times my autocarrot knows it) mutation, so I cannot methylize folate, so if I do not eat methylated folate (as a pill supplement), it is bad. SSRIs mask that “bad”. If I take methylated folate at the right dose I am myself. If I SSRI it up, I’m a zombie. Took years to figure everything out and the right balance, and I’m still learning shit about my other defects. But it took a lot of work to get to the place where I could get off the SSRIs, and there were more than a few failed (md approved) attempts.
