I know what I need to do, I just keep putting it off

I know I need to start medication. I am in therapy and have multiple resources (virtually atm) for talking through issues. But I'm struggling with diving into taking meds, and struggling with how I feel not taking them also.

I used to be like that to until I started taking them and found the best one for me

Hi there! I'm so glad you found the right one for you. : )


Yeah, I'll tell the doctor I'm all prepared and ready then two days later I'm like nope I don't need them I'll give it more time. But after weeks in the house not leaving the neighborhood safe to say I could use the help. I'm just super paranoid about effects

Hi New Horizon. When I first took them 23 years ago the only thing that I noticed was, well how do I say it. It took longer for me to finish when I was having sex. But that only lasted about a year. Now I have no side effects. I didn’t gain wait or anything.

Hi New Horizon. I forgot to mention I was on Paxil for about 17 years then I switched. The first one I tried, I don’t remember the name, it made me feel funny so I switched to what I’m on now which is 20mg of Lexapro since 2017z No side effects Even thought about 6 months ago it took a break it seemed like and I went and saw a counselor and he said stick with it and in about 2 months I’d be back to normal. He was absolutely right
