it inhibits the reuptake of 5-HT serotonin receptors.




Let me just point out that the receptors don't reuptake anything. Reuptake is when the neurotransmitters (like serotonin) get released into the synaptic gap from the presynaptic neuron. While sitting in the synaptic gap some will get absorbed by the appropriate receptor sites on the post synaptic neuron and the ones not used get absorbed back into the there synaptic vesicles (In the presynaptic neuron) waiting to be reused until they are absorbed. Now SSRI's (specific serotonin reuptake inhibitors) stop them from being pushed back into the synaptic vesicles. This means if they cant be reused they just sit in the synaptic gap giving the receptors more time to absorb them all. The receptor sites work the same while on or off ssri's.

Lexapro with weed was amazing when I was on the stuff. I ended up blazing all day everyday on that stuff... it seriously did feel like a mild roll. I took 5mg everyday until I realized I had no need for the stuff, it calmed me a lot but to the point where I was happy doing nothing but smoking weed and playing guitar hero all day long. I didn't even care whether or not I left my house. That stuff is pretty strong, it significantly alters your behaviour. It kinda creeped me out.

In my case the Lexapro affected my behaviour in a way I did not like, therefore I stopped regardless of what my doctor suggested.

When I first started taking Lexapro it felt like I was rolling mildy 24/7 and naturally weed just goes so well with this. But to me the idea of feeling that way all the time made me seriously consider why I was doing this to myself. It's not natural by any means... I think it goes without saying that being drugged up all day everday on anything will lead to changes in your body's equilibrium and you will inevitably suffer consequences when you stop. This applies to pretty much every drug with psychoactive effects I can think of.

So it's not just SSRI's, or anything. It's the difference between "being medicated" and not having to worry versus actually taking responsibility for everything. It's my opinion that it is way too common for people these days to have crutches with drugs. It's so widespread it's not even funny- and I'm not saying this as being a good or bad thing, it's just how we function. Almost everyone I know uses at least some form of drug to help them cope with something. In the end though, there is a difference between giving up yourself so that you can live free of all worries, and leaning on something to make a situation more easier.

Hey man, I've seen two of my friends turn into near-zombies on anti-depressants. Ones on Lexapro, he would smoke on that stuff and would either start freaking out and yelling things at everyone in the room, or just be walking around and totally unresponsive unless you grabbed him by the shoulders and asked him a question. The other friend is on Celexa, a lot of Celexa. The drug doesn't seem to do what it is supposed to do for my friend. Apparently smoking marijuana on that is like a shroom trip(?). Can anybody else testify to that? Anyway as far As I can tell, SSRIs are pretty powerful and even low doses can drastically change one's overall judgement of those around them and themselves.
And yes, the American culture has become full of expediency, immediate gratification. Everybody just takes what they are given in life and doesn't question it. People completely and wholeheartedly believe everything they are presented with, and think that things like the news and popular culture have the TRUTH, when in all actuality, they only have what seems RIGHT because of the same "are you depressed? You're probably depressed" messages being battered into our skulls 24/7 on every TV Channel. the bullshit being broadcast to 300 million Americans (including pharmaceutical commercials, studies, and testing) is all sponsored, by the government! If not directly, then indirectly by pharmaceutical companies giving rewards to doctors who prescribe the most medication.
So I digressed, and this thread is 1043 days old but I'm bringing it back so THERE! Please tell me if you have experience with celexa or Lexapro!

In my case,i have/had anxiety and paranoia,mostly social phobia and tremors,my neck starts getting spasms and looking around calmly when people are around seems impossible.As if my eyeballs want to pop out of my head and go around to the backside and drill through my skull into my brain.But i guess in alot of ways it's my own fault and very tied to my outlook on life.But generally,ever since i took anti depressants i find it impossible to feel joy,or feel happyness,i'm so used to it that sometimes happy people piss me off.I just don't understand sudden outburts of happyness and talking things you don't really mean to someone you obviously might backstab only a few years later because you find out too much about him and he doesn't fit in to your personality list.Basically i'm healing myself now,and i've really had alot of progress,mostly on my outlook of life.But the biggest setback were the pills.
I've taken anti-depressants,zoloft for 1 year and prozac for another.I absolutely find my brain damaged after those 2 courses and i would love to urinate on my psychiatrists face.As if i was some kind of income for the medicine industry,it's quite obvious in my opinion.Doctors know that most people are stressed and unhealthy due to they're lifestyle,which nobody feels like changing when locked into the ever degrading society.
So they always look for an easy solution,hmm what might that be? a pill? why not.The only catch is that the problems that the pill is supposed to solve are in the side effects list,including 30 other.So the first pill will take you to the next,and so on.All anti depressants are a stairway to emotionless life,eventually they take you to psychosis and then you'll already want anti psychotics which pretty much exterminate your conciousness.
It's the way of life,life keeps trying to sustain itself,survival of the fittest.Since we already have the big paradox of money,there are countless people obsessed with it and who will do anything to get it.And whoever falls victim of the ever power hungry companies is just unlucky,it's quite right what Timothy Leary said:"question authority and think for yourself"

As to answer the question hehe,i smoked loads of weed when on prozac,didn't feel any difference.In fact prozac didn't really make me feel anything at all.

Hypnotized by your stillness in the candleflames i spin,deep into the dark vortex that is in all of us...i've got your worm in my head.
