I started taking them as soon as I got them. I feel relieved, sadly. I can’t help but feel relieved, guilty and also defeated because I let big pharma take hold of my mental health. It feels bad man. I want to taper off of them asap but I don’t know what I can replace my antidepressants with and I am terrified to have an episode again. Before I was medicated I was having episodes daily. They calmed down after I got an SSRI. 5 days without them and I had an episode and it was by far the worst breakdown I’ve had. I stressed my boyfriend out to the max because he was the one trying to calm me down. Feels really bad man.

First and foremost. I pray that you will have the everlasting peace God brings. Secondly, and this is coming from my own personal experience, but a good friend of mine did 2 tours in Afghanistan as a sniper. Has PTSD pretty bad and depression. He took anti depressants for a long time but he still has nightmares and bouts. Recently he did some research and started micro dosing magic mushrooms. Not enough to make you trip, just enough to elevate his mood. And from his mouth not mine, he told me his nightmares stopped and his depression is about non existent. And since then he's dumped that big pharma poison in favor of a natural God given remedy. Take that as you will, but I figured it would be worth a shot and any natural remedy is worth it in my book. God bless fren
