- throwaway743 4y agoYears ago my doctor switched me to an SSRI as a one time trial to see if it would better help/could be tolerated... yeah never again. That shit straight up induced mania and suicidal thoughts. I cut that trial off real quick right after noticing. Everyone's different, but SSRIs are a hard no for me.

- rthomas6 4y agoThat's testable. That's already the case in some places, or close to it. Do those places also have rising suicide rates?
- theGnuMe 4y agoDenmark is like the happiest place on earth… what do they do?
- rthomas6 4y agoDenmark's suicide rate is falling, so that is indeed evidence that they're doing something right.
- Bakary 4y agoA wealthy, small, semi-homogeneous population with strong social safety nets.
- karencarits 4y agoNorway is very similar to Denmark, though, and has tried to reduce the suicide rate for many years now but without success
- rthomas6 4y agoInteresting. I wonder what is different between the two countries that could account for this?
- alvarezbjm-hn 4y agoTricyclics are as good as the SSRI, but they aren't first line because of the secondary effects.
- LatteLazy 4y agoNeither really work well enough to be used. We should seriously examine society...
