My doctor put me on 300 mg of Effexor for depression and anxiety. This is higher than the max recommended dose, but he insisted it was fine. I took that shit for over a year without any noticeable change, so I asked to taper off of it. I've been off of it for over two months now and don't feel any different at all. Wtf.

they may help with getting out of a severe depressive episode, but they're otherwise mostly useless and overprescribed. lifestyle changes and healthy habits tend to be more effective for mild/moderate depression

It’s actually much worse than that. If they were placebos it wouldn’t be that bad…just a garden-variety scam.

They're a fucking waste of time and money. All those appointments and refills for no change. Felt like shit before starting the pills, felt the same on the pills, felt the same after stopping.

They literally have no idea how they work and they often do the opposite of what’s intended (make you more depressed, anxious, and suicidal)
