Did medication worked for you ?

[Clown]

On a scale from 0-10 how much did the medication helped you ? I talk about anti depressants

10= all most cured
9= its great I can live almost normal like everyone else
8= it helped but still suffer daily, but midly
7= it helped little bit and im on my road to recovery to 8-9 & 10
6= it helped only slightly and I don't see big improvements
5= I don't know for sure if it worked but im atleast more outgoing then before

.......and and so on and 0 = worked zero and had only side effects
and 1 = I felt nothing.

I ask this because im little bit skeptical to use anti-depressants.. but if some people get almost cured by it, then why not.

I'm on anti depressants, all they do is make u feel a little better, you still won't be able to make friends easily or land a gf.

But they do , give you some piece of mind ? not that panicking out of control feeling

I might say 2,, they did some effect but I was so bad from side effect so that's probably a reason I dont take them.

what for sort of side effects did you experience ?
I haven''t tried anti depressants for long ... but I got that down/zombie emotionless state
not really happy, not super down but just flat

Yeah they do help, i'm alot better anxiety wise, before i wouldn't leave the house & would skip school lessons, but depression wise, hasn't helped alot.


only side effects i got was weight gain, i take Zoloft btw.
