I sometimes reminisce on the past. The person I used to be. I loved life and could feel so much. The bad and the good are what make life meaningful. I cannot believe antidepressants took so much from me. They robbed me of my soul. I wish I had a Time Machine. I could go back and change what happened. I wish so badly to feel like a normal human again. I'd rather be depressed and anxious again than feel this way day after day. By the time society realizes the true extent of the damage these drugs have caused so many lives will be changed. I no longer have a sense of time. It's like watching your life go by without being present. I'm a shadow to my own existence.

I'm here for the same reasons. Damaged by meds. My life was so good. I'd do anything to take back the minor anxiety I had compared to what I'm left with now.

OMG SAME!!!! 😭😭😭😭 I was damaged by Methylprednisolone or prednisone unfortunately… idk if ANYONE HERE has the same exact story as me but that steroid took my life away from me and lead me through a series of unfortunate events that ultimately lead me to here lol! I can't hang myself unfortunately(I just fucking can't!). Personally I'd rather either A: OD on drugs, Or B sodium Nitrite as jumping would be scary,

I mean I GUESS I COULD DO IT BUT… idk.

That steroid broke my brain and took my life away from me!!! 😭😭😭.

I'm sorry, these medications are poisons. I'm damaged by Effexor and am stuck on risperidone and seroquel. They make me want to die but I can't taper them without getting worse symptoms. I wish we were never put on these terrible drugs, it's inhumane. I used to be such a vibrant person now every minute is filled with thinking about death.

People mention seroquel a lot. I was put on it many years ago due to insomnia issues and it was the only thing that worked. I considered it a miracle. Then recently I was on it again for sleep issues and it made me feel really weird. Then so many on here bring it up. Now I'm concerned, though years ago my insomnia was so bad it was going to kill me, so i don't know I had a choice then.

It hits many receptors in the brain and alters body chemistry quite significantly. Some people may find benefit, but for many it causes ruin. It's very powerful but over prescribed. It should really only be used in the most extreme cases. Unfortunately, they make so much money off these drugs that most doctors are pushed to prescribe them under the guise of therapeutic benefits. Most of the damaged goes unrecognized or patients are gas lit into thinking the damage is their original condition resurfacing. They don't cure the imbalance, they cause it. These drugs have taken my soul. I have a loving family and I still want to die..literally everyday is torture and I feel no joy anymore. I'm seriously considering ending it once of these weekends and yet I feel so guilty for the pain I'll leave behind..it's like being in prison. Sorry for all the ranting it's just such a tragic thing that so many of us go through and we aren't believed. Or they think something simple will help and it's not the case, the brain is so sensitive.
