    I know this is an "old" video, but I can't tell you how much this means to me. I have taken steroids for rheumatoid arthritis and found I cannot take prednisone because it makes me suicidal. My son, who was diagnosed with MCD October 24, 2022. He has had three relapses in three months. So he has been mostly on 60 mg daily and he just turned 14 last week. He has struggled so, so very much. He already is treated medicinally for depression and this medication has made it almost impossible at times for him to function. He has a therapist, the school counselor, our priest, and a great group of friends. But I have picked him up from school 3-4 times because between ADHD, depression, and steroids, he can barely keep himself together. It's been so difficult for him, but he's rarely said anything about the challenges. He's a rock star. THANK YOU for addressing this very critical piece of the puzzle. ❤️

    I've taken prednisolone since 2012 on and off for my asthma.The worst side effect for me was depression,I even began noticing hallucinations and everything outside was intensly bright.I take antipressants for clinical depression which is real but my asthma is work related so I keep taking prednisolone just to get through my visious cycle.

    So strange, I have the complete opposite side effect. I feel so much happier and so ambitious on 40mg Prednisolone and its day 19 i think

      Did you have issues with anxiety or depression prior to the steroids?

      I have found the same to be true for me - 40 mg daily & it solves much of my mental fog & lack of drive.
      Wayy more than caffeine, much more like adderoll like effects
