>>9005556 No, it's called Buspirone. It's not a sedative like Valium or benzos. Doctor told me to take half a pill (5MG) before sleep, but I had an anxiety attack last night and took a whole pill (10MG). Then I started feeling really dizzy and weird. Then just got a headache from then on, even after sleep. Now I don't feel like anything.. not happy, not bad, just a little jitters from anxiety. What did you take?

>>9005529 Might not be able to cum either, if SSRI. You just can't quite get there without a lot of effort... What are you on?

>>9005529 You overdosed and damaged your ability to feel emotion; good job.

>>9005611 Buspirone. And funny, I didnt feel like fapping yesterday night, at all. Even though I usually fap once daily before going to bed. Might've been because of all the stress lately, or the pill.. I dont know.

>>9005593 i take citalopram its an ssri for depression and anxiety, it seams bupirone is meant to be a bit similar the side effects should die down, and it isn't meant to make you happy >>9005611 i can cum and its way more intense just more difficult, i'm probably ruining myself for actual sex but its not like that'll be a thing anyway

>>9005672 would it be worst if you got off them? if it barely helps, I wouldnt wanna take them. Does it even sedate you anymore? >>9005710 >it seams bupirone is meant to be a bit similar the side effects should die down, and it isn't meant to make you happy Yeah, I didnt have the guts to tell my doctor I was "depressed" just that I had a really bad chest pain, and she asked me if I get nervous alot, to which I said yes, and she prescribed me those. I guess as long as I dont feel as stressed/nervous I'm good.

I have a friend that also had medicine as a hobby that was on some anti-anxiety and depression meds for a while. He explained that the first six weeks on average you feel completely numb. His crotch didn't respond to anything and then all of the sudden he could feel again. Give it six weeks, anon. Just try.

>>9005807 >and then all of the sudden he could feel again. But I rather not feel feels. When I do, its mostly negative feels, so fuck that. Might as well not feel anything at all. Did he start feeling happier after the first six weeks?

>>9005529 Citalopram reporting in. I just started it three days ago for anxiety and depression. Side effects: Headache and bad nausea day 1 and 2. Waking every 1-2 hours during sleep. Restless. Drowsiness. Hand tremors appeared once. Sometimes I feel like I want to scream to alleviate a swelling joy or whatever within me. Benefits: Possibly imagining it, but a more positive inner-voice. Able to drive in traffic without feeling overwhelmed, stared at, criticized by everyone, followed, etc. Able to ride motorcycle much better. Basically the same fears as in car but worse. Eyes don't tear up at stop lights or when behind someone, thinking they're watching me. Don't care about anyone else. Not checking my mirrors way more than necessary like usual. Just enjoying the drive/ride. Watched 2 full movies. Played video games for hours on end. I haven't done these things for ages, since I always got distracted/bored and just browsed 4chan endlessly. Have had a three day weekend so we'll see how work goes. Work is the ultimate proving ground since it's a huge source of stress. As I understand it, this may be early to be reporting any success, though my doctor stated anywhere from a few days to weeks before improvement. It's possible I may just be imagining the positive inner-voice, for example. But I have never felt so tranquil in traffic in my life. Never.

>>9005529 stop taking those pills b4 they will burn your soul and leave an empty husk they are just drugs, like weed or alcohol they will improve your mood they have some bad side effect nothing in your life will change if you wont work for it I know I sound like a hippie/tinfoil but believe me - man I have been on that and my friends were. Those pills aint magic.

>>9005953 OP here. I only got prescribed 30 pills. I dont think it'll be an on-going thing. Maybe the doc just wants to see how I fare with these pills. Well, its time to go to work.. let's see if the anti-anxiety meds actually function.

>>9005807 Yes. He's much happier, he's a pretty confident guy and he's got this excellent level of "I don't give a fuck." It's actually very attractive.
