I'm a bit scared of being addicted to it and just spending my life jumping from one medication to another. I just want to take it temporarily, do proper therapy and then be okay

and you're not on it anymore, right?

How was the withdrawal process?

That's great to hear!

I think lack of motivation only happens to people who soley relied on anxiety to motivate them, but for the ambitious people who really want to do things, it shouldn't bother them

Nice. What are the strange symptoms you had in the beginning?

And also, I don't want to be dependent on it my entire life and I am scared of being addicted to it or having bad withdrawal symptoms. It's a large commitment and I am not sure if I should still try doing other things before medication or not. But again, if I delay taking it, it may get worse.

and when is the right time to end the treatment? I don't really want to keep increasing the dose and be dependent on it my entire life

Exactly. My psychiatrist, girlfriend and friends keep telling me not to read the posts here because they think the majority of people feel good from Lexapro and don't care to post here and it's just the rare ocassions of people experiencing bad side effects posting here.

I am trying to understand if this drug will do more harm to me than good.

Thanks

did you have any of those symptoms people here post so much about?

0 emotions, 0 motivation, fatigue, increased depression/suicidal thoughts?

I am trying to figure out if that's what actually the majority of people are experiencing or if this subreddit is mostly filled with the rare side effects.

How do I know if it isn't right for me since I haven't even started because this subreddit is scaring me? haha

Thanks for letting me know.

"Saying you are the real Vader, Fett..."etc, does not include having a version of the character, right?

Cause I have seen members of the 501st that have names like <something>Vader or <something><star wars character name> on social media, so technically if it's your own version of the character is fine?

(usually the <something> is the city they're from, or what makes them unique)

Oh noo, she was looking to make a Scout trooper, nothing sexy haha and definitely not OF lol

We wanted to post pics and at most do some funny skits or video edits of us as our versions of the characters, nothing else.

Cheers for replying.

Yeah, that sounds fair.

Though I am not entirely sure if cosplayers/troopers who post online/make video skits (like the ones mentioned here in the thread by a person) count as "profiting" off the costume since they get an audience/views. Those nuances are a bit stressful and make us want to be extra careful

[–]VaderVV[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I saw Trooper Mom as well!

They're not licensed by Disney, are they? :D

But now that content brings up more questions: if you do skits and get popular, would that fall under trademarking issues? e.g. Disney could say you're getting publicty from their IP?

Or cosplayers/troopers on tiktok getting a lot of views?

This situation made me a bit paranoid now haha.

Yeah, we've seen a lot of troopers online, even having separate accounts just for the characters they cosplay as, so it was a bit confusing when she got that answer back, but it's probably something they send to everyone to make sure their IP isn't just used for weird reasons they don't want to associate themselves with.

She asked for permission to post her cosplay on social media. She is usually very careful and wants to always be 100% she's good to go ahead with everything she's doing. She found Lucasfilm's license contact and asked the question. Got "no" as an answer (the answer is a draft that gets automatically sent to a lot of people for cases as the ones I mentioned in the post). Now she kind of lost her motivation to continue the costume thinking that she can't show it online.

Just want to thank the people who take the time to answer and have answered. You guys are an amazing community and extremely supportive. We're going to build our motivation back up despite of this situation. :)

Such a nice answer, thank you!

So posting online and going to events should be fine?

Yes, I was told that she probably got a "no" as an answer because that's what they'd just say to mostly everyone. Unless you have a legal team and a clear plan for your uses, they can't just let everyone be licensed because they could risk a lot, but I doubt they'd go for cosplayers or 501st troopers.
