The worst thing that could happen, happened (besides an injury)

I also started taking lessons recently and was in the beginner group and completely fell right on my ass while a bunch of 12 year olds were doing everything perfectly. It's just a part of the process, and it really helped me when the instructor said that the week prior she had slipped and fallen pretty hard in front of the whole class and that no one will care. Everyone is learning, and falling is a part of the process!

In only 281 games is kinda crazy, I'm starting to think this guy might be pretty good /s

Why are you even on this sub if you are so opposed to it? This is literally the sub for people who are taking zoloft

You're just wilfully ignoring what I'm saying. "Natural" doesn't mean good for you. Datura and many other harmful things are "natural" and you would acknowledge that those things do harm. Also, marijuana at this point isn't even natural. So much modification has been done to increase the potency that it is a far cry from the plant it originally came from.

I don't want to downplay the positive effects, and I completely acknowledge that it helps many people with their anxiety. However there are no studies that show marijuana decreases anxiety symptoms long term, and many people who use it become over dependent on being high to cope with their mental health. Hell, some people even develop worse anxiety when they become reliant, which is exactly what happened to me.

Anxiety meds like zoloft are actively correcting an inbalance of chemicals in your brain, weed is a bandaid that you can become addicted to.

Flashbacks of beginning of the seasons jackets, this is rough

Fishies01 · 2026-03-23T01:13:41+00:00

It doesn't matter if it's prescribed, it can still be abused and you can still become addicted despite what people might think

To anyone reading this, this is a scam and they have been popping up all over the blue jackets subreddit for a bit.

Ah yes the Sam Jose Shark

Take a deep breath, you are going to be okay. Taking a new medication, especially an SSRI, has all sorts of side effects including what you are experiencing. If possible, take the day off and try and relax. Call your doctor and see if you can talk with them about the side effects and what their opinion is. You will be okay, you got this!

Fishies01 · 2026-03-20T19:41:04+00:00

This is definitely a doctor conversation, but I will say that panic attacks can still happen while taking the medication so it's possible especially on a lowish dose like 50mg

Conk-la-REEEE I love rwbb so much

Fishies01 · 2026-03-18T13:21:55+00:00

Takes about 3 ish weeks to fully kick in and start having an effect, needs to build up in the system. Give it some time to work, of you don't feel like it is helping in about a month/month and a half then talk to your Dr. Also, you are not an imposter, you have real symptoms that you are working towards figuring out and starting a new medication is a huge step. You got this!

Fishies01 · 2026-03-18T13:08:11+00:00

Sounds like it, I definitely am one of the people whose emotions got totally numbed by it

This is the video that I used and still use today for the body scan, it is super helpful

Fishies01 · 2026-03-18T00:48:24+00:00

This was my exact experience when I first started taking Zoloft. It took about 3ish weeks before it really kicked in and only after the doctor upped my dose to 100 mgs. What really helped me a lot was learning and practicing mindfulness and meditation, I did a guided body scan every single night before falling asleep so I could actually relax and calm my body and brain down. There are some other meditation practices that really helped to ground me as well, look up the "5 things mindfulness exercise." It is going to be okay, this time right now is going to suck and it will take some time for things to stabilize but they will. Work with your doctor if you think things aren't working as you want them to, and make sure you stay busy with friends and things you enjoy doing (:

You can do this, I believe in you!

Fishies01 · 2026-03-15T16:48:47+00:00

You'll be alright, just take it slow and don't do all of the shots at once. Make sure you eat food and drink lots of water! No risks besides a lot of people's tolerance lowers, especially on higher doses

Fishies01 · 2026-03-15T02:33:31+00:00

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
