Are you frickers seriously retarded that you can't use the most extreme case to fit your narrative, on both sides?


you just don't get it, man. It's ok, I don't understand certain things. This isn't your forte and you just look very, very dumb.

Perhaps you would enjoy coloring, or badminton. Psych isn't your spot.

That’s great that you have been able to cope. What SSRI related behaviors are you referring to?

Eta: I think there are certainly people who need these medicines, and you are clearly one of them.

My Dad was in Vietnam in 64-66, and his younger brother from 67-69....they saw war, also. They weren't suicidal.


58,317 Americans died in Vietnam. AT LEAST that many Vietnam Vets have killed themselves since. Some estimates report that number as being double or even triple, there’s no way to tell due to current and past reporting practices.

Your sample size of TWO Vietnam veterans not committing suicide is not only insulting to the men and women battling mental illness, but it’s downright misguided and deceitful when used as the basis for your augment for clinically depressed patients to ‘toughen up’. I’ll leave my strong personal feelings for your ineptitude out of this thread, but you are not only wrong, you’re insensitive and ignorant.

Time to move on.

I mean that instead of improving themselves (I’m not victim-shaming here; I don’t think it’s objectionable to believe in self-improvement) or ordering their life in a way that reduces symptoms, the SSRIs enable people to remain in bad situations or not improve themselves (I mean their very selves; not the outcomes they experience). Further, they may actually prevent those improvements.

A very simple analogy would be that it’s good to know when you’ve put your hand on a hot stove so that you can move it.
A nerveless hand wouldn’t be an improvement because it let me hold my hand on the stove.

I’m not saying that “fighting through it” is an option for everyone. Obviously some situations are more acute than others and sometimes there is no improving the person or the environment.

You strike me as the type of guy who gets bent outta shape just as much as the people who take medicine to help their daily lives. As much as you are commenting on this topic that you dont know diddily squat about.

And arent you like 22? You got a lot of living to do to adequately give more experienced people such a hard time...

I can honestly say that I never have wish any mental challenges on anyone. I have had kidney stones, have been cut several times to the bone. I would take all of that several times over to not have to go through mental issues.

Those issues are under control. Completely. To you I say that it makes me more mentally strong than you will ever be. Someone who can walk out of mental challenges has overcome something more challenging than a majority of folks ever face.

For the first time ever, because of your obnoxiousness I truly hope that you have the experience of going through a mental health
Challenge.

It’ll humble your bitch arse really quick.

It’s sad that you take all these dangerous chemicals for depression when you could take an all natural medicine like whiskey

That’s an understandable objection. It’d be great if there were always easily identifiable causes of depression. I think an issue that can cause misunderstanding is that though tough situation may cause depression to develop, the depression itself doesn’t necessarily go away as the situation improves. That’s why it is identified as pathological.

As I’ve said earlier in the thread, I’m all for non-pharmacological therapies. In fact, every depressed patient on meds or not should use them. To address your analogy, therapy and live improvement are like taking your hand off the fire. SSRIs are like the meds to take to reduce the pain as you heal. In depressed people, the meds can be used to get them to remission.
