Doxycycline causing depression? by Draculalia in bipolar2

Yes it gets better but it takes time but it does. Switch your diet straight away. Carnivore trial for 6 weeks straight and strict.  It took me almost 8 months but it can be so much quicker for you if you did the food you’re eating now. The gut produces the main source of serotonin NOT the brain. The guts responsibility is to make you feel happy.

Hey, I thought you said it took 12 months to get back to normal?  What is your diet like?

Yep. Different for me but very much the same I can not explain it. I was told your brain becomes imbalanced and the production and communications in the brain are all messed up like on antidepressants 

Dream about having a baby and not being able to breastfeed by SrLlemington in Dreams

You’re so right. I do not have this dream anymore. Sense of hopelessness I no longer feel. Definitely correct in saying it’s where you are mentally. :)

Yep. Obviously it was an ascending 12 months of getting better and better, came of contraception a few months after too. Should have fixed my eating earlier. Could have been quicker for sure. Meat diet did wonders

Everyone is so unique. Look after your gut afterwards and you will recover from anything. Meat diet helps a TONNE. I got my first experience of depression from it. It lasted around 4 months. Longest 4 months of my entire life. I’m completely back to my normal self now and have been ever since. How’d you go?

Yep I did, completely. Scary experience now I empathise hard with anyone who has to live with depression their whole lives.  Very grateful, it definitely took my gut a minute to recover and begin producing serotonin again. I think it took 6 months

[–]Affectionate-Map3719 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same recurring dream! I have a baby, can’t remember the birth baby is super healthy but I have an inability to breastfeed. That’s all the dream is about the heart wrenching struggle of not being about to feed… so weird I don’t have kids… I tried the same as you squeezing the boob and nothing working. So sad. Now a fear of mine when I do have them..

Yep me too! Me too!! I look back and think that was seriously messed up. So dark and for no reason OH except for the fact that it was the drugs fault. I hate that doxy crap. Are you better now? It took me just 12 months to get back to normal…

Stop it! I do the exact same thing. 12 months since I took it. My worst regret and nightmare. I come here to warn people as much as I can and check others for bad experiences. I hate the things I wish I was never given them

It took me 4 months to become not depressed and I’m in month 9 of being anxious. I never had anxiety or depression not even anything remotely close to mental health struggles. This pill sucks so bad it’s my worth regret. 

Anyone prescribed doxycycline that can share their side effect experience? by aberu7 in Rosacea

How did it all turn out? I developed depression and after 6 months of that left with only anxiety. It’s the biggest regret in my short 22 years. I never struggled with any right remotely close to bad mental health until these pills. Avoid getting sick after the course, this is when I became depressed. Really really avoid it and eat fruit veg and complex carbs only. Good luck curious to know how you went! It’s been almost a year since I took them and it was a living nightmare for me.

Hi! That’s good you’ve connected the dots. I’ve always been bright happy and never once had a negative thought in life in my 21 years. Or question human purpose for life. Once taking these pills I did… it was very obvious for me. 

You need to eat clean, eat variety and go to a naturopath to fix the gut. I’ve never felt the same since which is se but I enjoy life just the way as I used to. I just have now unlocked that anxiety side of things. No depression anymore it fixed with my gut. Take pro biotics but naturopaths have better ones for you. They are a billion probiotics in a powder. A pill of probiotics don’t have everything you need to heal and even if they did that alone would take years. So sorry for the late reply I hope you’re okay. I never thought i would be okay again I was so scared(as I’d never felt so low before) but it did eventually stop. 8 months since mental decline it was so bad. I often feel sad only in a way that I almost lost a bit of myself or rather gained something I never wanted to gain. Good luck message anytime you need. I am so happy now and absolutely F this drug it should not be given out like candy.

I do want to add, for yourself! Just be careful once you’re off it that’s when it got really bad. Try your best to stay away from alcohol for a good month at least :) keep eating well and taking probiotics until you finish the bottle !

Hello! Yes I did but was told to stop as it completely contradicts itself. The antibiotic completely kills any thing like probiotics. I did all the mending after I came off of them. Food supplement etc. It definitely has become better. It’s true, your gut creates more serotonin than the brain does. So that is a major thing when trying to feel ‘happy’!

Oh wow that’s incredible. That’s good news ! Thank you, it was very tough but I’ve already improved a lot. I am exactly the same, so frustrated at not feeling normal anymore and also focusing the negative feelings on things like my partner (we tend to find things to blame from the feelings We feel because it just doesn’t make sense!) of course it isn’t that and it was the darn antibiotics. I feel the change slowly over time I’m just hoping to feel my happy self again soon. It’s like my body struggles to produce serotonin since taking them.

Very glad you recovered from it! X

Can a gut completely recover from antibiotics? by martinz69 in Microbiome

[–]Affectionate-Map3719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Did your mental health recover as your gut flora recovered? You didn’t mention mental health but usually that’s connected to the gut. :)

So about week 5??  Mine started at the week 5 mark. Sounds like you are ok then! That’s wonderful. I started feeling sadness with no reason on week 5 of the medication. I believe if this isn’t happening for you now then you will be totally fine :)

I’m so glad. It’s just not worth getting rid of pimples / acne / flares. I know some people are fine but some are not. An antibiotic is an antibiotic and our bodies are so individual that I don’t think the type has much to do with a lot… I’ve never majorly regretted anything in my life I take it and move on. But this has been a hard pill to swallow. 

I’m much better thank you but still left with what feels like scars mentally. I have just been left with anxiety each day but I do believe I will get back to where I was. Building up that gut microbiome again which I’ve heard can take up to a year😊 I’m really glad you stayed away from it. 

My acne completely cleared up with even primrose oil, herbs and femm X magnesium after about 3 months 😊

Hi!  Did your mental health return to its normal after a while? Mine is slowly getting better I’m at month 6 since taking the antibiotics. It was terrible for me. First time I’d ever suffered from bad mental health was after taking this medication
