Hi new here I’m 33 and starting antidepressant’s tomorrow. I’m scared to take medication, but I’m so ready to be done with this depression because it’s ruining my life and an almost 2 year relationship. If anyone else here is scared please don’t be I’m so excited to start my life off happy like I deserve.
So how's it going so far ? :)
How’s it going ?
The risk is that you have untreated rellaations and circunstances which you just ignore further with drugs..
Depression comes as a result from doing stuff you don't want and ignore your feelings. Or as a result from trying to accomplish something which you continually fail.
I'm 33 as well and started taking 50mg of sertraline in May, my birthday month. Been on it a month now and it has been life changing. I can now go on walks and do self care tasks and actually get out of bed in the morning to face the day. Even making myself something to eat feels easy now. I'm hoping it goes well for you ❤
@@FyaaahS No. There are multiple reasons for depression. Stop.
Diabetic people aren’t shamed for taking medication they need, should be the same for depression and anxiety! Thank you for being open and honest about this, mental health is health and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’ve had depression and severe anxiety my entire life and I do not think I would still be here if it wasn’t for the help my medication gives me.
Great perspective… I have my meds on hand but I’m so scared to take it even though I need it
Diabetic medication is an extremely scientific process. When you take insulin it is measured and a scientific process followed each time you check your levels. These are mental drugs that get you strung out and having to take more and more as your tolerance builds to the drugs. They are addicting and there is no way to test to check exactly how many mg of drugs you need; very different.
Can we all just appreciate the amount of effort Payton
puts into these videos
It's so admirable that you are destigmatizeing mental health and being so genuine about this topic! Thank you! 💗😘
Thank you for watching & I appreciate this comment so much ❤
Thank you so much for talking about this openly 🥺 i have extreme depression and anxiety since childhood and my so called friends now think that I am depressed because i wanted too, that’s why am isolating myself and am doing selfcare because consulting a specialist is really expensive where I live but this video will help me alot thank you 😊 love you ❤️
I’m so sorry to hear this!! Stay strong. It can be so difficult when the people around you don’t understand what depression is - you deserve a support system. Sometimes, you have to be that for yourself. Proud of you ❤️
Loved that podcast episode on taking medications! I recently found myself dealing with quite a bout of anxiety and waves of depression suddenly. I'm open to medication but currently doing "as needed" and therapy (I too get paranoia, especially now with flights, doctor's appointments, random things). I've been able to be myself again after 3-4 months of therapy work but boy, is it an everyday struggle. Appreciate you being so open about it!
Ahhh so happy that you’re getting it under control! The paranoia is truly a ruiner of everyday existence. It’s hard to be positive when intrusive thoughts ruin everything. Keep on keepin on ❤
I relate so much on feeling better on medication. I recently started taking antidepressants and have noticed such a difference! I’m happy for us ♥️
Naw those cant be good shorty
I’m so happy antidepressants are working for you! I started them for anxiety and depression a year ago and it’s completely changed my life around
Which are you on?
@@xoxokayxoxo i take lexapro. Lexapro is a very common antidepressant and it works for a lot of people. Your doctor will probably start you off on a baby dose of 10 mg and you can go from there depending on your symptoms since everyone is different
@@ashleyayala222 I got prescribed Prozac today & I’m scared to take it
@@xoxokayxoxo starting with it today :)
I'm so happy for you! Thanks for sharing
Totally can relate! I'm 41 and been depressed and anxious most of my life. It's really been childhood abuse, malnutrition and the loss of my brother when I was 13, bullying in junior high and homelessness and multiple rapes in my young adult years. So My whole life has been pretty sad and full of trauma! I've tried to kill myself multiple times in my teens and had a eating disorder. I've been on multiple medications and hospitalized 4 times. I am on cymbalta for the second time and am really trying to get past the side effects! I take it during the day and I can still sleep pretty okay this time. I am feeling much better already! The side effects subsidied quickly this time! I look forward to months 2 and 3. Your mental health is everything! Never take it for granted and always do good for your own mind!! Keep it up, beautiful!! You deserve it!! On the positive mental health journey too and it's the best way to Live!! Muah, xoxo 😘 🔥
You're a strong woman and I'm proud of you
It's really brave the way you explain this issue. I'm now 6 weeks on antidep and still adapting to it. Thanks a lot
Beyond amazing how open you are about this, it’s seriously so rare and refreshing. I do have one q - my doctor was super weird abt mixing them with alc. How do you safely balance both?
My doctor just told me to be careful - I can have a drink or two - but binge drinking is a HUGE no. I quickly figured out why - blackout Central. I don’t recommend.
Thanks for replying!!
What do you take? How long to help and what side effects? That’s an antidepressant video. This is not that, despite the title
Seriously!
I am 33 years old and six months postpartum and Ive definitely been dealing dealing with some postpartum depression and major anxiety to the point that I am constantly worried about anything and everything under the sun and I am so irritable and reactive and on edge that it’s definitely affecting my relationship so tonight I actually started my medication. The first week I’m taking 25 mg and the second week I bump up to 50 mg and then I see my doctor in one month to see if that dosage is good for me but she knows I am wanting to start and hopefully stick with a very low dose.. I am just so ready to be happy again and to be able to make the people I love happy again.
How is it going? I feel like I can relate *a lot* to what you said. I was prescribed sertraline a few weeks ago and I have been too afraid to take it. I’m scared or side effects especially in the beginning
@@TheChelseaanicoleedid you end up starting? I got prescribed Lexapro 5mg and I’m afraid to start
I am an avid mental health awareness advocate and spoken word performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my UA-cam channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates.
Thank you for talking about this!! Have you experienced any side effects/how has adjusting been if you don’t mind me asking!
Because my dosage is so low, I haven't experienced many side-effects. The first week, I felt slightly air-headed (like legit air in my head??? idk how else to explain it) but now I feel normal.
Check my handle 👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽 that dude will help you ok
Hi Payton, thank you for your raw and honest opinion. I am on day 13 of Lexapro and it's been really tough with anxiety and depression rearing in the forefront. I'm hoping for better days ahead. ❤️🌄
How did the medication end up going for you??
Can you follow up
love that you are making this a normal discussion on social media :) I’m glad everything’s going well! I have anxiety too, and I can’t last 4 days without my meds😅no like seriously, I ran out and didn’t have them for four days ending up in withdrawal symptoms😋lmao
I experienced this when I was in college (I took meds for under a year back then- almost 10 yrs ago) and I experienced withdrawal. now I’m much more careful to never do that!
Thanks for talking so openly about this! I went on meds a couple years ago and feel worlds better. Have you thought about whether your paranoia is maybe intrusive thoughts (which is a main symptom of OCD)?
My therapist/psychiatrist and I decided it was probably my ever-present anxiety!
what antidepressant are you on?
What medication are you on? If you don’t mind me asking
Thanks for the video. Which antidepressant would you say was the best ? Or as least side effects ? Thanks again
I’m currently on fluoxetine and it’s been amazing. I had a headache few the first few days but currently now things are going well for me :)
LOVE YOU PAYTON
I love this video, thank you for sharing. I will look into your channel more. Depression is new to me and I searched online - thank you for making this video
What medication are you using?
I've been depressed ever since the day my father passed away on October 21
Hot girls with ocd/taboo intrusive thoughts where you at? 💚
The struggle is real haha❤❤😢
I cannot understand people self-labeling themselves as hot? That just seems so arrogant and self-promoting to me? It just seems so strange to me to say that about oneself like one is better than someone else??
Which antidepressiva ???? Hair loss????
Omg the editing is just so good! I love this Payton !
Your growing so much and Im so happy for u.
I used to take Prozac but quit because I was stupid and ignorant. I want to get back on them but I’ve gotten so used to being depressed I’m scared of feeling normal again.
Is it okay to take antidepressants during pregnancy
i start fluoxetine tomorrow :) i hope it can help me the way it’s helped so many others
Thumbs up on this video! 👍🏻
More people need to talk about this subject. There is still a lot of misunderstandings/stigma about this.
Truth! Starting the wave.
Do you still wear your Oura ring ?
I try to! I lost the charger for quite awhile but just got a new one- it’s back on my finger now
I am also there with all of u❤,me too on wellbutrine for 1yr
I am obsessed with you!!!!
❤❤❤
Ty!
Thank you 🙏
💙💙💙
Yesterday I received prescription for Prozac intake for the next 7 months...
Perfect time for updates. Thanks in advance
@@MOverDose Well. I drop it in March 2024. Libido was almost dead. More important I gained my weight. Not recommended. NEVER EVER to nobody. After drop intake it libido recovered in 2 week completely. In the middle of the april I started special diet to loose this "Prozac" weight. It's going SO hard.
@@truesightgrabber so sorry you had a rough time on it. The weight gain is definitely a concerning side effect. I hope you feel better despite everything
🫶🏼 what is the name of the retreat? plz :)
Miraval Resorts (Berkshires). They also have locations in Tucson and Austin! This was a work trip, so I didn’t pay to attend, but I’m considering going on my own to experience it all!
I can't believe she's smiling and laughing. I am quite depressed and I haven't smiled and laughed in quite a while. I'm withdrawn.. I don't get it
Beautiful video n great music. I am starting Wellbutrin this week
Just say this is an advertisement for "Hers", or if you're being genuine - at least mention what medication you're on, otherwise your advice is useless. Saying "my chosen medication" doesn't make you seem more considerate, it makes you seem unnecessarily secretive and like you're hiding something for no reason.
Brits are quite funny with names - Berkshire is pronounced "Bark-shuh". kinda weird, but yeah.
Can we talk about how perfect the intro song was…😍
Video starts 6 minutes in ❤
Binge watching
What a waste of time, I thought this was going to be a full detail video of being on antidepressants. You should look up how to be compensated for flight delays, if your flight is delayed up to 2 hours your ticked should be refunded up to 200%.
S2
Damn it
It's not about shame it's about the lack of informed consent. These drugs have terrible side effects that are swept under the tugy. Just look at the opioid epidemic
Ты очень красивая, обнял
You are beautiful
Beautiful where the same age
Tell us what medication you're on, otherwise your advice is useless. There are so many different kinds of antidepressants
every body reacts differently to every medication. you have to talk to a doctor about that. her telling us what antidepressants she’s on is useless
@@lousyren Yeah, and for that reason we MUST know what she's on!!!!! Otherwise it's like reading a review of a product that doesn't mention what the product actually is!!!! Serious room temperature IQ moment
Why do you say “hot girls take their meds”? That sounds so arrogant and self-promoting with all due respect? It would be nice if you just shared your videos without saying that?
Because I can say whatever I want and you can cry about it if you want :) hope this helps!
It's okay to be depressed, it's a normal human emotion. Society is telling you something is wrong with you, when nothings is.
Are you mad?
Depression isn’t normal.. sadness is. Depression is beyond. its feeling like you have zero future every moment. Feeling hopeless, embarrassed about your life, constant feelings of shame, guilt, and being suicidal. Feeling like no one would even care if I were gone. Nothing about that is normal and it requires being on medication. Have a great day.
What rubbish is this 😅 Sadness is normal. Clinical depression is a different animal. Not being able to get out of bed for months. Not being able to do self care tasks or even make something to eat. Constantly crying and having breakdowns. That sounds normal to you? 😂
Sadness does not equal depression. Depression had me in bed for days not giving a shit about anything, letting my life fall apart around me. I’m not on typical anti depressants but I am on meds that changed my life for the better and I’m finally motivated and able to finish tasks when before I couldn’t finish a single task, neglected relationships and work tasks and spent the majority of my free time sleeping.
Bro get to the point yapper smh
So cringe
You didn’t even go over the medications…
Where is the hot girl?
