@neuromanticfanatic: Over one-third of American adults will take an antidepressant at some point in their lives. This despite the fact that the chemical imbalance theory of depression has been totally repudiated: Umbrella review published in Molecular Psychiatry in 2023. Low serotonin, used to justify SSRI prescription on a massive scale, does not cause depression. Simple as. #MentalHealth #neuroscience #depression #SSRI #medicaltiktok

sometimes i can't help but to think it's the system causing it and the only way to cure depression in the long term is to change the system we're living in. and i know this is such a broad statement but it's true. they would have to recognize all of the ways in which the system (social, political, heirachrical, economical etc) has failed us all. there's so much that we cannot change and on order for us to address that we would need to restructure our world order. that's definitely not going to happen in one generation, although we are making some progress. my point being that this batch of generations is going through the trenches of modern society and depression is just a side effect of it. we need to make this place better so that future generations don't experience the same type of mental suffering that has taken the lives of many.

ssris are best selling becaause they work. theyre some of the modt efficacious drugs in psychiatry and theyve only gotten better with targeted SMS drugs and adjuncts. individually ssris might not be efficacious but the class as a whole certainly is

On one hand, certainly pharma has pushed and overwrought hypothesis with SSRIs, but I also think you are downplaying the way that these drugs do help a lot of people and the studies that actually give reasonable models for this effect. Evidence does show that while a lack of serotonin may not be the underlying issue, that a lack of hippocampal neurogenesis is implicated in depression, and through an albeit indirect chain of events, SSRIs do appear to increase neurogenesis via BDNF. The long time for them to take effect appears to be because the increase in tonic serotonin leads to the downregulation of 5-HT1A autoreceptors, increasing the phasic effects of serotonin neurons. This has shown to be a generally procognitive effect.

All I know is my meds work and I don't cry everyday anymore. (I don't know if I'm on SSRI or something else though. I just know it has helped. 🤷‍♀️)

thank you so much for making this video. it makes a lot of sense. doctors have been throwing SSRI’s at me since i was ten and it’s been fucking torturous for me. this makes me wonder how much of the “depression” i so call has is environmental rather than mental. or how much could have been the ssri in the first place (being weened off and put back on). again, thank you so much.

SSRIs don’t work on me, but I know a lot of people they do wonders for. I just wish my mental health professionals would’ve sought beyond them

Preach, SSRIs exert a drug effect just like other drugs.

This is so interesting and also made me want to give you a high-five at the end. I will go look up this study. I’m not on SSRIs but I’m on plenty of APs and I’ve always been curious about their efficacy.

If you have a headache, it’s not from a lack of ibuprofen in your system. The headache is a sign of something else that needs addressed but we don’t address it and merely throw ibuprofen at the sign. Same with SSRIs.

Tokyo Ghoul is a manga set in an alternate reality where ghouls, monstrous (or demonic) creatures who look like normal people but can only survive by eating human meat and blood, live in secret among the human population and hide their true nature to avoid persecution by the authorities of the human world. Ghouls have different superhuman powers, such as increased strength and regenerative abilities; a normal ghoul produces 4-7 times more kinetic energy in their muscles than a normal human being; they also have a several times larger number of RC cells, cells that flow like blood and can solidify instantly. 1000 - 7 = 993 993 - 7 = 986 986 - 7 = 979 979 - 7 = 972 972 - 7 = 965 965 - 7 = 958 958 - 7 = 951 951 - 7 = 944 944 - 7 = 937 937 - 7 = 930 930 - 7 = 923 923 - 7 = 916 916 - 7 = 909 909 - 7 = 902 902 - 7 = 895 895 - 7 = 888 888 - 7 = 881 881 - 7 = 874 874 - 7 = 867 867 - 7 = 860 860 - 7 = 853 853 - 7 = 846 846 - 7 = 839 839 - 7 = 832 832 - 7 = 825 825 - 7 = 818 818 - 7 = 811 811 - 7 = 804 804 - 7 = 797 797 - 7 = 790 790 - 7 = 783 783 - 7 = 776 776 - 7 = 769 769 - 7 = 762 762 - 7 = 755 755 - 7 = 748 748 - 7 = 741 741 - 7 = 734 734 - 7 = 727 727 - 7 = 720 720 - 7 = 713 713 - 7 = 706 706 - 7 = 699 699 - 7 = 692 692 - 7 = 685 685 - 7 = 678 678 - 7 = 671 671 - 7 = 664 664 - 7 = 657 657 - 7 = 650 650 - 7 = 643 643 - 7 = 636 636 - 7 = 629 629 - 7 = 622 622 - 7 = 615 615 - 7 = 608 608 - 7 = 601 601 - 7 = 594 594 - 7 = 587 587 - 7 = 580 580 - 7 = 573 573 - 7 = 566 566 - 7 = 559 559 - 7 = 552 552 - 7 = 545 545 - 7 = 538 538 - 7 = 531 531 - 7 = 524 524 - 7 = 517 517 - 7 = 510 510 - 7 = 503 503 - 7 = 496 496 - 7 = 489 489 - 7 = 482 482 - 7 = 475 475 - 7 = 468 468 - 7 = 461 461 - 7 = 454 454 - 7 = 447 447 - 7 = 440 440 - 7 = 433 433 - 7 = 426 426 - 7 = 419 419 - 7 = 412 412 - 7 = 405 405 - 7 = 398 398 - 7 = 391 391 - 7 = 384 384 - 7 = 377 377 - 7 = 370 370 - 7 = 363 363 - 7 = 356 356 - 7 = 349 349 - 7 = 342 342 - 7 = 335 335 - 7 = 328 328 - 7 = 321 321 - 7 = 314 314 - 7 = 307 307 - 7 = 300 300 - 7 = 293 293 - 7 = 286 286 - 7 = 279 279 - 7 = 272 272 - 7 = 265 265 - 7 = 258 258 - 7 = 251 251 - 7 = 244 244 - 7 = 237 237 - 7 = 230 230 - 7 = 223 223 - 7 = 216 216 - 7 = 209 209 - 7 = 202 202 - 7 = 195 195 - 7 = 188 188 - 7 = 181 181 - 7 = 174 174 - 7 = 167 167 - 7 = 160 160 - 7 = 153 153 - 7 = 146 146 - 7 = 139 139 - 7 = 132 132 - 7 = 125 125 - 7 = 118 118 - 7 = 111 111 - 7 = 104 104 - 7 = 97 97 - 7 = 90 90 - 7 = 83 83 - 7 = 76 76 - 7 = 69 69 - 7 = 62 62 - 7 = 55 55 - 7 = 48 48 - 7 = 41 41 - 7 = 34 34 - 7 = 27 27 - 7 = 20 20 - 7 = 13 13 - 7 = 6 6 - 7 = -1 #brazilianphonk #matadora
