What causes sometimes for antidepressants to increase suicidal thoughts in depressed patients is because, i talked with a therpist.
It increases the energy for thoughts to think about suicidal thoughts, and actaully act on it, my old school counselor always told me she wanted to drive her car off a cliff when i talked with her, she was on effexor. But she said when she didnt take her effexor is when she thought suicidal. Because some people with depression with suicidal thoughts dont act because there is no energy.
Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft Can increase that thought energy of suicide, and i thought this clearly over.
I've been on Prozac for a while, and i dont have suicidal thoughts much any more, mostly in my teen's is when it was present.
But i just thought this would give some information.
When depressed, i rerember i just looked out of a window and felt nother, expept dispair. Went on antidepressants, and really had a warp, i didnt understand these "altered" states of mind from the Zoloft, or Wellbutrin. But eventaully i said "im very strong" and nothing is going to stop me. I went on Prozac and since then my depression has been ok, but still i do have problems coping with life, so its not a miracle drug.
I just thought maybe i would share this thought maybe with yall.
Alright, please keep me in your thoughts. I dont want seem like the "reject" here.
Love yall
