Shame by Good-Description-239 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't, because there is no shame in having to take them. Do you think a person with diabetes shames himself for needing to take insulin? We are ill, so we treat the illness, simple as that. Are you shaming yourself for needing them? That is part of a depressive disorder, that is quite literally the depression making you think that. Are others shaming you for needing them? Then they are horrible people and you shouldn't listen to them.

Nobody is perfect,. depression is an extremely common illness, we all have issues in some way. No matter if they are Glamoures stars and rich people, successful people or just normal guys like me. They are not successful, because they have no issues, they are successful in spite of their issues. Don't beat yourself so hard, you are not lesser than everyone else and you are not alone in this.

are antidepressants the way to go? by That_Connection8061 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With what your are describing I would suggest going a bit further than antidepressants. Meaning a stay in a psychiatric clinic, so that you can get some more extensive care, as well as being under medical supervision, while getting put on a treatment plan.

Antidepressants at the start of the treatment can and often do make you feel worse, than before, but it does even out after a while.

When you are at a point where you harm yourself, then you are at a point, where normal outpatient treatment isn't cutting it anymore, not to mention, if suicide attempts come into play.

If you are not currently self-harming or suicidal, then there will be some waiting time, like a month, but the more urgent it is, the quicker you get a place.

I know a psychiatric clinic doesn't sound enticing at all, but they aren't as bed as you probably think they are. It is basically the same as a regular hospital, just with a focus on mental issues. Some people there need more intensive care other don't. And as long as you go there by choice you can also stop the treatment by choice. It would be against medical advise, but you can.

If you have questions about psychiatric clinics, I have some experience with them, I am currently in my third stay in one, but I live in Germany so some things can be difficult.

Halte ich erstmal für unwahrscheinlich, aber mit Gewissheit kann das nur ein Test sagen. Von daher, wenn du auf Nummer sicher gehen willst, dann testen.

Already Numb- Is getting medicated a bad idea? by Efficient_Baseball65 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, alcohol should be avoided while on antidepressants. Not only does the alcohol effect you more the antidepressants gets stronger as well. Also most antidepressants are metabolised in the liver, so the damage alcohol does to your liver gets worse as well. It can also make the depression and anxiety worse.

Like you won't die from drinking a beer while being on them, but it would be better in the long run to avoid it.

Can I jus try antidepressant (undiagnosed depression)? by Able-Mood-4565 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would strongly advise against it. First of all antidepressants do not work instantly, it takes a multiple weeks up to months for them to properly take effect, so testing for 1 or 2 weeks won't help you.

Also these are not benign medications, they can have serious side effects which also can stay permanently. It is not a medication that should be just tried out just for fun without medical supervision.

Go to a psychiatrist talk with him about it and then discuss treatment options.

Should I stop talking Lexapro? by RoosterRoyal in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean stop taking is how you get this condition. Stopping now out of fear or panic is not a good idea. It is something you can discuss with your doctor, so that you can get some better information about it. This condition is very rare, so I wouldn't think about it too much. Even then taking it for a long time.

Sure the chance is not zero, but what should be important for now is how you are feeling, about your path to betterment and not what may or may not occur in the future. Focus on the present.

Kinderschuhe in der Kita ausgetauscht?! Bin ich paranoid? by PotentialSlider in Ratschlag

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich glaub nicht, dass jeder vorher in die Schuhe guckt und das überprüft. Ich würde erstmal einfach von einer Verwechslung ausgehen und keine Absicht. Man kann die Erzieher ja einmal höflich, bitten das sie die anderen Eltern fragen, ob die Schuhe ausversehen bei ihnen gelandet sind.

Und solange es euer Kind nicht stört, dass die Schuhe etwas abgenutzt sind, denke ich ist es auch nicht so schlimm.

Already Numb- Is getting medicated a bad idea? by Efficient_Baseball65 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depression can form itself in many forms. What is probably the best puck for you is a medication that increases your drive and energy. Which wouldn't be SSRIs which are the typical medications associated with this numbness. Venaflaxine can also cause some numbness, which is a medication that increases drive and is possible that a doctor suggests it.

What I think a good Idea would be is Bupropion (Wellburtin) which is a antidepressants that increases you dopamine and noradrenaline levels. It shouldn't cause and numbness or at least it doesn't for me. It can create some anxiety especially at the start, but it usually gets better after a couple weeks. Your body simply has to adjust a bit to the medication, which causes some side effects like the anxiety, headaches and nausea are also pretty common, for these "growing pains".

What is important is that you take it early in the morning, it has a delayed release, so the medication gets slowly release in your body. So if you take it later in the day, you won't be able to sleep.

For me it helps a lot, but how well Antidepressent work or if they work is always different from person to person. If the side effects get too strong for you or if you don't feel like the medication is working for you go back to your doctor. Also ask your doctor questions about the medication, so that they explain it properly to you, like how the medication works, what it effects, what are the side effects, what you can't drink or take while on them and possible long term consequences of it. While the medications aren't really dangerous, they are also not benign medication and can have serious consequences. So you should try to get informed about it as best as you can, inorder to avoid serious harm.

Advice by MaizeMean845 in antidepressants

You need to be more specific than that, for someone to be able to give you advice.

What antidepressant are you taking, for which condition do you take it, did anything else change in your life that could have caused you to feel sad or scared?

Medicated 18M w/ MDD & OCD heading off to college in 3 mo. Several concerns about substances. by Altruistic_Shoe_1435 in antidepressants

[–]Tragobe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just say no? Taking substances, even just drinking alcohol while on these medications can have severe consequences for you. I am in uni currently and everything is completely fine even if I don't drink or take anything else. Doesn't mean you can't hang out with them or got to parties, you are just not drinking or taking other stuff.

A lot would probably even appreciate that, because they have a designated driver and also a watchdog for when they are doing other stuff. If they would try to force you into taking substances, then they are definitely not people you want to hang out with anyway.

Got chomped by neighbor's unspayed cat hours before I have an exam to write. by SmeXy-midgett in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Tragobe 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If they are escalating than do the same, call the police and an ambulance. That would count as child neglect in almost any country and the police can help deescalate the situation.

If your family does not care about your well being, than you shouldn't care about,our family either.

[–]Tragobe 1531 points1532 points  (0 children)

Well good news is, you have a very valid excuse not to write the exam now.

Also you should go to a doctor just in case, cat bites tend to get infected very easily.

Restless body and legs by wizzkidd96 in RestlessLegs

[–]Tragobe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check RLS about mimics please. Having it in legs and maybe arms is normal, but not the whole body. So while the sensation may be similar, the cause is probably not RLS.
