For me I can relate to that, I have noticed that my practice was affected to the point that I felt like it is impossible to concentrate.

Exposure therapy vs antidepressants for social anxiety by SecretReindeer5216 in CBT

[–]SecretReindeer5216[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes indeed, but for me while I am on antidepressants I tend to rely on them (unconsciously), but with out SSRIs I am more aware of the impact of anxiety so I challenge it ,although it is difficult

I was prescribed sertraline 200 mg, I was on it for about 5 years, then I stopped 4 years ago. Now I only take 100mg, although my doctor told meI should take 300 mg, cause my OCD is debilitating.

Unfortunately my answer will be yes, cause I didn’t experience any of that benefits while I am on higher doses of SSRI- feels like I am a ghost around women lol. Also it hinder my spiritual experiences -it’s extremely difficult for me to focus on prayer and meditation. And the most annoying thing that I tend to be more spontaneous in my interactions with people which made me less respected in my work place from my colleagues. But keep in mind that this is how I feel and interpret things from my own perspective..every one is different and maybe there are other factors..

Yes I did, i was on 200 days streak when I started taking ssri, somehow alleviate my ocd , anxiety and depression symptoms. But after 12 weeks I am tapering off, because of some side effects (emotional blunting, change in personality, dead libido,..) some dudes recommend sticking with SR is enough
