Depression pills

Do they work on people when i took them all they made me do was get weirder i dont like the fact of not being able to control what i am feeling. when i took them it was like a artificial happiness or weirdness idk i just wanted to know what people thought of them

I take them and they work for me but at the same time i hate them cuz i feel like i can't control myself i need medicane to contol me....but if your taking them and your getting suicidal thoughts then you should stop taking them immedietly

I guess it depends on the individuals' situation; and also what type of anti depressant you're on too- SSRIs (selective serotinin reuptake inhibitors) are different from tri-cyclics, so ya...
Personally, i think that they should only be taken in conjunction with therapy...

:)

Whats wrong with being happy all the time other than that its new to you. meds really are different from person to person. i have been on at least 20 diferent ones at one time or another. constant checkups and therapy helps but meds can be the answer to someones prayers but they can also be the begining of the end it all really depends on the person

^^ well in my case its fake happiness and i hate fake things

everyone like many people said are different and being different not everyone goes through the same thing i stopped taking them because suicide became almost more than a thought ....but it was weird i was stil smling a fake smile .....

i hate suicide because it seems to me as being selfish so anything that makes me change my mind about something that big ...that means there has to be something wrong

I guess ill change my name to pathetic..
better quality of life... thats the phrase that pops into my head immediately, if you're not satisfied with it, going to see a qualified doctor might not be a bad idea, a good doctor isnt gonna throw a pile of pills at you and send you on your way, they would most likely prescribe a combination of therapy and medication... and meds. only in the event that you needed them and that it was appropriate. if you are having SERIOUS issues talk to your family and do some investigation, it cant hurt to ask about it, but not doing anything might...back to being pathetic...millions of people rely on medication everyday to function from day to day, to improve their quality of life, and i am one of them, i do agree that a pill is NOT A CURE,(but they help) in addition to medication a thorough type of therapy and a whole bunch of hard work is kinda necessary too...so umm..thats what i think anyway..

Seriously though meds can help some peopel but i also think it can be a mental thing. cuz although the suicidal urges are a fact them not working can be a mental thing. if u tell urself oh these meds wont work then they probably wont. our own minds can really control alot. they can be a waste and it is hell if u cant get them when you need them but from my eperience people have always been willing to help and find away. the pharmacies i got to always help when i need it like if i cant afford the full perscription they give what i can afford until i can get more. and yeah it is pathetic to depend on tablets and pills but dont just think of it as depending. its helping you and pushing you along.

I agree. it depends on your state of mind
not on the fact if pills work or not but that if you need thsem at all
the modern person made up pills someone said somthing about back then no one would use these things and its true they were also very healthy
......modern day sucks

People make their own decisions you dont need pills to tell you that you are ok!

I thought they helped me, they do make you feel all hazy sometimes but it was definately a good thing for me.

Sooo...let's encourage everyone
to go on out and start drinking...
thats just brilliant....sigh...
