Reply To: Is every other Woman on Zoloft?

I know and agree with Health that the doctors job is to help, heal, and prescribe medication that will do just that.

So I am not really upset and blaming the doctor. I am thankful that they are there, and thankful for the man who invented SSRI’s. But I just want people out there to know the actual dangers of getting hooked on them, because there can be serious side effects of trying to get off them. In other words, unless you are severely depressed or OCD or severly disabled by anxiety disorders, please reconsider popping that pill when you could otherwise heal thy self by proper exercise, and self improvement books like “the feeling good handbook” based on CBT techniques.

I during the course of SSRI treatment was so in love with it, I thought “my goodness, is life really suppose to be this smooth a flow?” However, it comes with a high price.

DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE!!! …and never blame the doctors.

I love physicians. I wish I had have become one. But they DO NOT TELL YOU EVERYTHING…neither do the pharm.companies.
