Okay, so I’m sure alot of you are in the same boat as I am.
I’m pretty sure I have depression and anxiety, I don’t know what the symptons are because I’m just assuming that they’ve been with me for so long that I sorta got used to feeling like this. I feel like I’m about to cry even when I have no tears to shed. I feel like I’m never good enough for anyone and it’s killing me. and alot more but I’m not gonna divulge into them because I fear of breaking down and crying in class. yes. I’m on here in class.. pretty pathetic right?
So, my question for you is… if I were to get anti-depressant pills fromm my doctor, do you think it would help at all? cause I’ve heard a bunch of different stories, but I’d like to hear from you. I’m going to give myself a weekend, two days to see if I feel any better, and if I don’t I’m going to get the anti-depressant pills from my doctor. but please comment and tell me if I should do this.
cause honestly, I don’t think I can make my own decision. because lately I’m always screwing up and fucking everything up for myself.

Cipralex is symptom-free, although a bit expensive, and works really well for anxiety, depression, and OCD. It changed my life 🙂
Okay, how much is it, approximately? I’m just wondering if I can be prescribed it from my doctor, cause I don’t want to feel like this anymore.
thanks 🙂
Taking anti depressing pills. You always run the risk of getting worse because our brains do not automatically adjust to the pills. There are side effects. But I think it’s a great idea that you are considering . And if things go wrong, tell your doctor.
I know, I’ve been doing my research on anti-depressant pills and there are alot of symptoms, but i don’t know, I just feel like this is something I have to do.
and if things go wrong then I will go to my doctor, I promise.
Hi . YES . medication defn helps , but u must consult ur doctor before taking any medicine , as everyone’s situation is diff …
Of course , I really do encourage this idea. I am actually considering taking pills myself because I am driving myself insane with this depression. I’ve always just been scared for my reaction . But it’s a great idea, go for it . It’s worth the risk.
Every medication affect each individual differently – it would seem discussing this with your doctor would be the way to go – he/she can either figure the best course of action or recommend a good therapist who has the knowledge and experience to get you to where you need to be.

Your doctor will suggest Citalopram instead of Cipralex because it is covered by the health care system, it’s the exact same drug, except Citalopram may have side effects. Cipralex is about $100 per month, and isn’t covered by the Canadian health care system. Honestly, you could go with either or, but Cipralex is the best way to go if you can afford it.
I personally wouldn’t take any drug other than Cipralex because psychiatrists can lie and tell you that a drug is safe and non-addictive, when it isn’t. People spend months in the psych ward withdrawing from seemingly innocent depression meds that have withdrawal symptoms so dangerous that you need 24/7 monitoring to make sure that you don’t die. I don’t mean to scare you, but ‘m not exaggerating- my Mom was screwed over by a psychiatrist and because of it she has taught me to always research drugs before you take them and talk to several professionals before starting a drug.
