I've tried a number of antidepressants, Sertraline, Escitaloprám, Venlafaxine. Neither seems to have helped me arguably I feel worse on them as I still self harm and have made more frequent attempts to CTB while on all these antidepressants does anyone else have similar experiences with antidepressants?

You must try more medications, followed by those that address your specific symptoms, such as self-harm. Consider reading reviews on drugs.com.


I'm not sure if these medications are "life-changing," but I stick with the ones that don't cause any negative side effects.

Hmm, I just feel more blunt. Like I don't have any emotions

Maybe you need anti Psychotics or mood stabilisers if you still feel depressed

You should try antipsychotics and mood stabilizers. As the other comments said.

I personally don't like meds but it helps. Not sure if your doc knows about your sh or the attempts. They would have put you on it if so
