posting to subscribe, i'll come back and shed what insight i've got on 'em tomorrow.
I'm not on them anymore, not because they didn't work..because they did in a weird way, but I felt like I was able to deal with it on my own in other ways with more success and less side effects.
Also I wanted to trip.

Wellbutrin is an atypical anti-depressant that is a mild dopamine releaser/reuptake inhibitor and rather strong noradrenaline releaser. Chemically it is an a ketone analog of amphetamine and central nervous system stimulant.
That is, it is a cathinone--more commonly called 'bath salts.' And it has effects at first like you hear about bath salts, at least it did to me. I got weird thoughts about killing my neighbors and shit, and really paranoid. After about two weeks I had this awesome body high and was real happy, and was popping a woody about 5 times a day I was so horny. The high at the two week point was kind of like a mild MDMA high.
They prescribe it to older women sometimes to make them horny.
I don't recommend it.

Very little effect. Felt slightly dumber, had some slight tingles in the head.
Never take them for too long, or you will end up worse than when you started.
My mom was addicted to Bupropion for 20 years and now she's depressed permanently.

Subscribing. I've been on Zoloft but I think I got the lesson they taught and kinda integrated into my life. They were very subtle though.

I understand and totally agree with figuring it out and doing what makes you happy. Iv met a few people who took them got what they needed to get out of there funk and tossed them away. Not sure what to make of my situation as its been going on for some time.

From what I understand, they have some serious long-term, if not permanent effects, on your psyche. I would definitely be careful about getting on them and not taking a doctor's word without a grain of salt.

Kratom is a miraculous antidepressant and should be used instead of pharmaceutical SSRI etc antidepressants in my opinion.
It is a CURE for depression with less addiction and side effects and much higher effectiveness.

lol that's the worst advice to give someone with clinical depression. It's a chronic, lifelong condition and it really can't be cured - only managed.

I have heard a lot of warnings from people who take them that they are really bad news.
That they can cause suicidal or homicidal thoughts and behaviour, that they are addictive, that the withdrawal if you try to come off them is horrific, and that they make you a bit of a zombie (flat, blurred).
I have never taken them myself.
My brother and law takes one. He started feeling better so he decided to stop. He said the withdrawal felt like he was trying to crawl out of his skin. The withdrawal was so horrible he had to go back on them and still is.
Its basically a lifelong commitment to take them, which to me is not acceptable.

Not gonna lie snri withdrawal is by far the worst thing ive went through and I've had withdrawal from benzo's, opiates, and meth.
But I was also taking crazy amounts, and with anti-depressants you're usually not dosed that high and you should be fine as long as you taper off them.
I plan to keep taking my zoloft for another 2 months I think, and I'll taper. Also I'm not on it for depression but anxiety.

The only thing I really have to say about the prescription anti-depressants these days is that if you end up on MAOI's never take MDMA cuz u'll get serotonin syndrome

That was exactly my experience with them!!!
Stay away from antidepressants. Its nothing but bad news. The very first time I tried them I got extremely suicidal and got admitted to a psych ward where those fucking quacks (yes psych doctors are not real doctors IMO) doubled my dose which didn't help one bit.
I got addicted. I got fat and slow. I was sleeping +14 hours a day, waking up to eat like 15 doughnuts and go back to sleep.
Then I stopped cold turkey and it was insane. I couldn't sleep I couldn't eat I was breaking down emotionally.
As I said DON'T USE ANTIDEPRESSANTS. You will almost certainly regret it.
The best antidepressant that I found was sex. Lots and lots of hot, horny, nasty, slimey sex Go fuck a bitch man, stay away from the pills unless you want to die.

I took Zoloft for awhile and later on Wellbutrin. They really are not something that you want to get involved with unless you have severe long term depression. They have some pretty shitty side effects.
But if you do decide to, I would give Wellbutrin a shot. It seemed to work pretty well for me and I know others who have had success with it as well. But I decided not to continue taking it because it gave me insomnia/nightmares.
Anti-depressants are generally more trouble than they are worth and WAY over-prescribed. Depression is a part of life, and unless you've been that way for a long time and can't get over it I would not mess with them.

I had anxiety last year and the doctors put me on xanex for the short term attacks and tried various ssris to stabilize my mood. After taking the ssris I felt like a zombie, never laughed, cried, or even felt happy or sad. I hated this feeling! I tried tripping while i was medicated and the effects were completely absent. I took a break from the ssris and tripped again. I had the most profound trip of my life! I realized i shouldn't be using medications like this, I just wanted to be me and see where life took me. After the trip i told my parents I stopped taking xanex and prozac. I haven't taken those drugs since. My cure is psychedelics, weed, and friends! Just because the antidepressants didn't work for me doesn't me they don't for you. If they make you enjoy day to day life, then great for you. If you want to trip I would suggest taking at least a week or more of the prozac before you trip.
