I did say it as a joke, but you really shouldn't take grapefruit, or any citrus on any type of intoxicants - those fruits have some type of inhibitory molecule that interferes with general liver toxin degradation.

Bitter/Seville oranges have a similar effect to grapefruit. All about the CYPs.

Grapefruit is disgusting and nobody should eat it or drink the juice anyway. (Ruby Red grapefruit is a genetic mutant caused by exposure to radiation too.)

Pennywise the Frown posted:I've been warned about grapefruit a lot with my meds. Especially with buproprion. It can increase the blood levels of certain drugs in your body like 100% or something lol. But like, Costco has these grapefruit cups that are wonderful. Eh.... The list of medications grapefruit is contraindicated with is hilariously long, to the point that it's "pretty much everything related to mental health".

A few years ago Redbull's summer edition flavor was grapefruit and it was the greatest thing that company has ever accomplished.

And after a few months it went away forever, and the next couple of year's summer editions tasted like suntan lotion so gently caress RedBull.

For example I had major depressive disorder for a very long time that was not being addressed by conventional SSRIs and other medications. Doctors ran more tests and found out I had a tumor in my skull and when they cut it out I got better. Talk therapy is very useful for the things that talking things through is useful for and I still find it useful to this day because we all need to address complex emotional states rather than bottle them up. hth!

Dang It Bhabhi! posted:well that isn't how it works which is maybe why you feel that way? Talking about depression and anxiety requires thinking about upsetting things, which will inevitably lead to me having a meltdown, in front of another person, which will result in feelings of humiliation, which makes my life permanently worse, because every bad thing that has ever happened to me feels like it happened earlier today, there is no sense of space between me and my traumas, they’re all just here, all the time, gnawing at me. And now I’m having a loving meltdown, gently caress this rancid world and gently caress me for continuing this discussion when I knew this would happen to me. Psychedelics and SSRIs help me with this. gently caress jorp for good measure I guess.

Talk therapy helps tons of people all the time. If you have a good team with a psychologist (talk) and a psychiatrist (meds), then that's basically the jackpot. And some people just want to talk to a person confidentially (unless they're going to hurt themselves or someone else). Just get their poo poo out.

Yeah, talking worked for me; I'm not totally out of the woods yet, but man oh man, I'd describe a situation I was going through, and because I'm talking about it and trying to be fair for all parties involved (and not just come out like the Good Guy in the story), a LOT of answers/explanations came to light. Like a number of things I do and ways that I'm like can be traced back to my horribly abusive 'friend' that I had for almost ten years growing up. I used to look back on him and think 'guy was a total dick', and now I add 'and he affected me in ways that are still coming out today.' Recognizing that poo poo REALLY helped. Not everyone's situation is the same, of course, but where one finds no solace in 'just getting it all out', others find quite a bit.

Your experiences with therapy aren't an objective truth of the world. Many people see improvement with therapy, or therapy in combination with drugs. It's possible to get caught in unhealthy or unproductive thought patterns, and its hard to get out because you can't even recognize it or see a way out. Therapy can be good at identifying them and then providing means to step out of the spiral once you know it's happening. Psychedelics did a pretty decent job of helping me get out of those mental ruts, but for many people therapy is beneficial.

War and Pieces posted:If you have the opportunity check yourself into in patient... brute force that poo poo No. There is no catharsis for me, there will never be. My brain works different. Did you not see the part where I said that everything bad that has ever happened to me feels like it happened JUST NOW, and good things seem to be in the impossibly distant past? The only way I could see talk therapy not being agonizing for me would be to take a giant dose of mescaline beforehand, which would make the therapist uncomfortable because they’d basically be a third wheel and I’d be ignoring them for 12+ hours.

Not a gotcha, I'm curious. My therapist would always be like "wow you figured a lot out" and like yeah? I went as far as I could myself, then called in an expert when I was stuck . . . is that not how you're supposed to do it?

Did you not see the part where I said that everything bad that has ever happened to me feels like it happened JUST NOW, and good things seem to be in the impossibly distant past? If you can get off SSRIs for 6 weeks, I HIGHLY recommend ayahuasca. It's like 10 years of therapy in a single night but then for three nights. It's like the best concert of your life + you're tripping balls for five hours and make really great friends to boot. Sometimes, you will want to die but that's part of the debug/reformat process wherein it is pulling your trauma to the front of your mind & dealing with it. Not a cure all. Not a panacea. But the poo poo works & I'd probably be dead or injecting meth if I didn't find my temple. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5895707/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8221532/ People might balk at the cost (like $1200 for 3 nights) but I literally doubled my income within 30 days of my first ceremony & the QOL improvement asides is completely worth it.
