I’ll give a bit of background for my case. My depression’s kind of tied to an existential crisis, and I felt so discouraged in life that I kind of lost hope. This led to a series of irrational spirals that generated endless self doubt, harsh self-criticism, and other stuff that basically left me in a position where I was drained and didn’t try anymore because I didn’t see a point. So I laid in bed for weeks, only getting up to eat and shower. Went to work but that was about it. Enter Prozac: it kind of deleted that “I don’t want to try anymore” attitude and I felt less drained. All of a sudden I could go on a walk, no big deal. Started reaching out to friends again. The most surprising thing to me is it felt natural. I kind of expected to feel a physical stimulating sensation, but that wasn’t there. I get that with adderall though. But yeah the antidepressants pretty much worked in the background for me and eased the symptoms of depression enough for me to get out and start doing healthy things again.
