antidepressants work different on everyone, the doc can't know up front which is right for you.

I've never told you your friends are manipulating you.

I have told you that your tendency to internalize bad feedback and then catastrophize is like catnip to abusers and that you need to get that under control, though.

But I do remember explicitly mentioning bupropion as an antidepressant that doesn't cause these symptoms. (It has its whole own set of side effects which can be fun and ZAP interesting ZAP.)

You've tried babby's first SSRI and it didn't work. A symptom journal helps your doc narrow down what's happening, and you're at the very beginning of the list of poo poo they can try.

anyhoo, tell your doctor the meds dont work. that's all i'll be saying about it. endlessmonotony, please refrain from remotely diagnosing hbag, it's arguably more tedious than hbag themself.

I ain't diagnosing poo poo, they have the diagnosis already. And they, fortunately, can't get any pills without asking the doctor to try something new, so what I'm telling them is to keep a symptom journal and then talk honestly with the doctor about their condition without trying to hide the blatantly obvious.

And yes I know I might as well trying to bail against a waterfall here, I have significant overlap in diagnoses and it took me until my mid-20's to even start mitigating my problems despite rather a lot of times hearing the right advice. And granted, also a whole lot of useless advice, and I couldn't sort those from each other at all, and moving myself to do anything even when I knew the right answer was at best difficult, doubly so when I couldn't tell at all if what I was trying was plausible or impossible, because that's knowledge you only get from experience.

I'd say nobody here knows how frustrating it is to see someone else repeat your mistakes, but EVERYONE here knows that frustration with hbag, the way they keep hacking together time-waster projects.

Lemon, you may be witnessing history here. Making it through a full 24 hours without a single misstep is called "Reaganing." The only other people who've ever done it: Lee Iaccoca, Jack Welch, and - no judgment - Saddam Hussein.
