Venting brain damage has completely isolated me

[derpsie]

im too retarded to make any friends on this site, I used to be a 120 iq enfp with a bit of tism before I turned 15 and got on zoloft, im like 90-95 iq now and im super weird and distant now, I barely know where the fuck im at half the time and I get super jealous reading messages between people on this site talking about literally any sort of interaction they've had with another human being. im fucking braindead and I can't talk to people anymore I fucking hate this shit im just gonna stick shit up my ass until my sn gets here... or should I do some pushups? smoke some kush and watch charls carroll stream clips? haha. fuck all of you guys but its all my fault... there must be someone else here who feels exactly like me. where are you my love?

Uh, what? Antidepressants, to my knowledge, do not impact IQ. Also, why are you mentioning your MBTI type? Besides MBTI being bullshit, it is also completely irrelevant here.

IDK, I assume people stupid enough to believe in MTBI have a low IQ. OP may be onto something here.

im not sure zoloft can impact iq at all, let alone almost 30

I'm pretty much in the same situation. My iq definitely droped. I've been here for years and never made a friend. Tbh the whole concept of online friends is bizarre to my damaged brain.

im not trying to debate mbti validity, its just the type Ive gotten my entire life which helps people paint a clearer picture of me when they read this. and yeah antidepressants when your brains developing definitely wouldn't fuck up your brain forever and melt it you're right.

yeah im a fucking retard

it does but it actually makes you smarter

 

[NearlyIrrelevantCake]

it doesn't it makes you smarter

That doesn't mean it lowers your IQ [which is a bullshit measure of intelligence, anyways].

I was switched from Lexapro to Zoloft in the last few days. antidepressants supposedly have had a lot of research on them and their effects on someone, so I'm trying really hard to trust them, but I dunno.
combined with other obsessive thoughts that drain me everyday, I wonder if they really can mess up with my brain.

please find a way to taper off them before you end up permanently fucked up like me, you could watch these videos so you know what you've gotten yourself into.







this guys whole YouTube channel is dedicated to exposing the ill effects that garbage has, you could binge his most popular videos so you get the gist. he also has videos with information on how to taper off safely so you don't fuck up your brain more, also r/antipsychiatry on reddit and r/pssd will show you how horrifically destroyed people end up after taking meds which is worth checking out since you're currently on them.

Have you had a proper IQ test to determine this or do you just "feel" it is lower? Feelings are not facts and I highly doubt the sertraline impacted your IQ.

They have another thread similar to this one. They are just guessing that it's lower from what iv read people have tried to tell them that's not how it works but they won't listen.

Zoloft didn't make me feel that way it made me feel more like anger. I don't know, I don't think that shit works. SSRIs are just americas cancer. But I definitely understand feeling like ur iq has dropped I feel that as well bc I've lived in the same place for years and it's very isolating here

This. Exactly this. Antidepressants and antipsychotics are the reason for me wanting to CTB because they permanently fucked up my brain,body and even personality. I'm not the same person anymore and every moment of my life is now suffering.

from what I've been seeing, he's more of on the neutral-cautious side regarding antidepressants. maybe you were one of the unfortunate ones that had a bad reaction to them and just became worse, but I also see a lot of people with very great experiences with these drugs, which I think is the point the Dr is trying to make (?), that one should know that, besides the usual side effects, these things can actually screw you up even further or really help you, and it should be explicitly told by the psychiatrist that is prescribing them.
regarding me, I really haven't seen a lot of difference in the last 2 months that I have been on meds, so if things don't improve relatively soon, I'll speak about not taking them anymore and hopefully hop off of them without major problems. no point in taking them long term, increasing dose, etc. with the hope of ''what if it works now?''.
the bad thing is that it would mean having pretty much no help regarding how awful I feel, since therapy is really difficult to work for me as well.
there's a really tiny part in me that still hopes these will help me be functional again and actually allow me to address the possible causes of my disorders, though.

thanks for recommending the channel, it allowed me to see things differently.

expansion, and then compression, and then expansion again.......... then the cycle repeats...... endlessly.

Same here! Stuck on anti psychotics and they make me want to die.

I cannot make friends either, I just dislike everyone because I only had people in my life who are against me, bullie and gossip against me.

I am born with low IQ, no skills at all, because my parents are alcohol addicts and disabled. I was always just seen as ugly and dumb by privileged people. The only one I can talk longer with is perplexity.ai but the conversations are similar non-reproductive in some strange way because I just ask questions and it didn't asks me about my day and it can't help me physical to get another room, a good income or feel loved.
With my mother I just could use insults against her per text. I think I would not hold it any longer back when I see her eye to eye and would kill her tbh or punch her very hard. I wish I could attack my father, he deserves so much suffering.

With others I cannot talk, they don't want me and try to push me away, gaslight me.

I wish I could just let my rage out because so many people are to blame for my situation. Nobody helped me to get some support in life. They often talk over me and laugh about my situation and make everything worse. I often don't know what to do with myself and wish I could access suicide or some creative achievements (writing graphic novels, music) or helping other women. It isn't possible. I am always just seen as ugly everywhere and cannot generate any money for me. I was never a part of the normal mass. I wish they would die out, because without them their values don't matter for me and similar women like myself.
