I disagree with you about the SSRIs based on my (basic) research in general, but given you said it has that effect on you personally I accept that as a data point. >However, I find that link is also full of things like "Bob was addicted to Adderal, and took 30mg everyday for 8 years". To me thats sounds like a successful therapeutic treatment without other supporting info like "Bob would use his monthly supply in a week". Few would consider "Bob took a normal dosage of an SSRI for 8 years" as an addiction. Of course there are a mix of experiences described there. If someone decides they have a problem with a drug and are struggling to stop, can we decide if it's not true? I doubt it. I don't think people are LARPing as stim addicts, but also I'm sure there are some people who struggle more than others. >To clarify, I'm sure some do get a mild high. Many don't. Maybe I'd get one on a higher dose, but I've got no desire to do so as I get much more enjoyment over just feeling awake and being able to focus. Though I definitely get a "mild high" if I accidentally take an extra dose of my SSRI. I'm glad you are able to keep them in a healthy place in your life. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
