Broken Machine posted:anti-depression meds are barely better than placebo in studies, and ssris in particular have a whole laundry list of side effects. i know some people swear by them, but i wouldn't touch them personally. weed is a pretty good anti depressant though imo their effect on the scores of a few particular multiple choice tests given to people willing to enroll in a paid study are barely above placebo their affect on your brain is huge and un-subtle but whether that will help your anxiety or depression or whatever is hard to say

qirex posted:remember all psych med research is based on people undergoing regular therapy, just giving them meds and not having them in regular counseling is a dice roll, like that antidepressant side effect where people finally get enough motivation to attempt suicide this is a good point, and in fact it is entirely believable that medication that just noticeably changes your state of mind (even if it isn't in itself an improvement) would help combined therapy. just to help break bad cycles and behaviors by forcing you into a new starting point. but tbqh everyone should be a bit careful being down on meds if they're not a doctor/expert. data may be poor, but i am pretty sure the average yospos opinion is based on worse information and knowledge still.

Yeah I wasn't trying to tell people to not take psych meds, just to try to have ongoing counseling if you can. most people I know who have been on them a long time have switched meds or dosing at least once and your gp absolutely does not know how to do that properly

The worst thing about psych meds are sanctimonious assholes treating mental illness like it's a challenge to be overcome rather than your own brain trying to loving kill you. Go gently caress yourself.

it's apparently extremely ableist to tell someone they should be monitored by an expert when taking potentially fatal medication that was only shown effective under the exact conditions of said monitoring

prior to the existence of antidepressants and anxiolytics, everyone was just drunk all time. people don't really default to happy and the capitalist hell world doesn't help at all. it's a constant battle to stay positive. welcome to life.

With a microwave I actually have to stop and stir after two minutes though, unlike with a toaster oven? "Swings and round-abouts" (as the kids say these days).

If you line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a grill rack over it, you have all you need to make tandoori whatever.
