Could SSRI anti depressants massively help someone reboot?

you don't want to shut off your libido you want to have a high libido so you can transmute it into achieving greatness in all areas of your life

turning off your sex drive on purpose would be a stupid idea on top of that you would be taking a drug without needing it and the side effects could change something in your brain, maybe negatively, don't do that

 

I can't say a SSRI is the right solution here. Surely you would have to speak to a professional who prescribes them and I doubt they would recommend a prescription just for quitting this.

 

Your dopamine receptors need to heal so do not do anything that would mess with them, if you want something to help with stress, anxiety, or depression I recommend looking into adaptogens such as ashwagandha or holy basil, I recommend the brand plnt.

 

Great idea with adaptogens.

Can't go wrong with the two Ayurvedic ones he recommended.

Coming in from a Chinese (Traditional Chinese Medicine) angle let me say He Shou Wu and Rehmannia (usually in a formula) just good for kidney energy which is directly correlated with sexual energy.

I could name more but this thread isn't for that?

Also gotta run or not following this rather, so best wishes in your journey!

 

The most effective adaptogen is ashwagandha, I noticed change instantly when I first took it, I even got a buzz from it.

 

I also face the same issues. Infact I am more worried I have to quit pmo and quit anti depressants as well. I always have back pain lower abdomen pain. I have general fatigue as well. Very poor sleep with the help of clonazepam. I m sick of my life. I m just 22 and facing these terrible signs of old-age. I want to be normal..

 

How is your eating?.

 

SSRIs are exceptionally good with OCD-related behaviours, so if that's a major struggle for you, then it can be worth continuing. After a while, as you have noticed, the blockage of the dopamine receptors create somewhat of a numb experience. This might lead people to do reckless things, just to get some "buzz" out of a "flat" life experience.

I wouldn't put to much trust into natural remedies, as they often have no double blind studies behind them that's not paid by the selling companies. Try if you feel you have the wallet and patience for it, but ALWAYS consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking them with prescription pills.

Lastly, there are great anti depressants that aren't quite so serotonergic and won't mess up your dopamine levels quite as much, such as mirtazapine, venlafaxine and Prozac (the last one still an SSRI but not as serotonergic as say, Zoloft).

Remember that certain diets and excercise routines are scientifically proven to combat depression (which most natural herbs aren't). Combined with the right antidepressant, this can be absolutely life changing.

 

I have quit sugar tea and coffee . I take normal diet .

 

Supplements like "New Chapter" with extra B complex vitamins may help; I take a 100 mg niacin with green teas and herbs, high quality essential oils on chakra points of the body may help too. If you want healthy testosterone levels, wisconsin ginseng is good, wild oat straw, etc. may help. Minerals if food form help.

 

Yes, it's the only actual way to get rid of a porn addiction.

 

Hey bro I take lexapro and it has made my life significantly better. I was starting to lose hope but it was the best choice I ever made. Everyone’s different too. Talk to a medical professional rather than a bunch of strangers online about this matter. Most people don’t really know what OCD is either and as I said taking pills should be more of a last resort but it sounds like you’re better taking it than not. Just talk to a professional

 

They could help but they could also fuck you up for quite a long time . They give ssri to sexual deviants , child molesters , rapists etc , and they give them to them for a reason, they can have long-term effects .

I wouldn't go down this route if I where you

 

I would look at all the natural and alternative supplements before using drugs. B complex is one specific but only use the best. Social activities, meditation, and exercise help a lot. More and more walking, breathing exercises out in the pure air from the bottom of your diaphram. No junk food, only whole foods, herbal teas, etc.. I'd seek a good local minister for regular prayer and interactions. The internet and squabbles ill affect mental health.

 

I wouldn't recommend it.

Many SSRIs have strong side effects. Some directly affecting your level of attractiveness (weight gain).

I'd only take it as a last resort, for instance if you have suicidal thoughts.

 

They all have side effects. I have a sister who is now on kidney dialysis and in a nursing home due to the psych meds she was put on.

 

When I stopped taking my SSRIs I saw massive improvement in my flatline over the following few weeks, it was seriously hindering my progress. The exact night that I stopped taking them I got a wet dream. It’s a good question. I’d avoid taking them during reboot if you can.

 

Please be careful with recommending natural supplements too, since these are FAR less regulated than prescription ones. Green tea supplements, for example, are known to cause liver failure in certain people, which is deadly.

Just because something is "natural" doesn't mean it's safe. Botulinum, curare, high levels of vitamin A and a fall from a cliff are all very organic, and they will kill you.

Meanwhile, a lot of synthetic prescription pills, taken in correct doses, saves millions of lives every year.
