I know some people have to experiment to find the right one I found mine off the bat I’ve been on them for prob 7 years I love them idk where’d I’d be without them
That being said people do have really bad experiences just try not to let the stigma sway you in either direction
Also give it time to work

I’ve been on and off meds for about a decade now and I have a complicated relationship with them- I am a raging hypochondriac so when Prozac stopped floating my boat and it came time to try something new, my OCD made me too scared of side effects to commit to anything. I also let the stigma kinda get to me and was defiantly off them in college when I needed them the most :-/ but when Covid hit I was like…. Perhaps it’s time to dive back in … and I’m so grateful I did. Absolutely no shame in it I love my lil pills

I was really opposed after a bad experience with meds in my teens but I can honestly say I would not be able to do the work in therapy that I’ve been doing without some storebought chemicals. if you don’t like the side effects, tell your doc to take you off! Or try another med! Every body and brain is so different.
(Please note: I live with SEVERE depression and PTSD, your mileage may vary)

been on it for 11 years.....have tried to come off it before but it's not possible for me and i've accepted that that is ok! SSRIs can be life saving drugs so definitly worth considering. they mostly kind of....put blinders on your emotions. like blunt the high highs and the low lows. so your spectrum of feeling might feel shortened..... which is hard. but in some cases is crucial for living life. i would not be who i am without the help of ssris
