> SSRIs kept me from killing myself.
Conversely, we've heard this sentiment from people using their first cannabis, psychedelic,
or even just their latest drink.
- s1artibartfast 2y agoThat may or may not be true. People are diverse in their psychology and situations. Sure, most or many people are probably exaggerating. That said, I have known a lot of suicidal people, and almost arbitrarily things can make a big difference.
- olyjohn 2y agoIt's true that a lot of people medicate themselves in various ways. It doesnt mean an SSRI doesn't work for a lot of people. This sounds like a very dismissive statement.
- drzaiusx11 2y agoI self medicated before going on SSRIs, I can tell you that neither alcohol nor THC/CBD/CBN/CBG worked nearly as well as SSRIs for me personally.
