Today my GP who is not a psychiatrist told me talking therapy, and or CBT wont help me and I should take Sertraline (yet he could not give any diagnosis on whats wrong with me and was blase af). Ive been researching it and fuck no. Im a gym rat and its really important for my mental health. Sertraline reduces testosterone and causes weight gain, and what your saying about low mood, lack of emotion sexual dysfunction etc is a massive red flag. So I wont be taking this shit. Recently ive got into meditation and mindfulness and its really helping me. As well as trying to eat and sleep better 🙏
man as a guy with autism and suffer with Severe anxiety and health anxiety. I can say that the recent medication I took was Buspirone and I took this for half a year and then came off of it because I was worried about the side effects. It hard one because I need something to function but then unhappy with the side effects and it makes me feel bad afterwards :( my mental health is the worst its been in my whole life. You are 100% right it is FRUSTRATING thats my life stress stress
We need back the Joe we know. Please take care. I always have resisted drugs instead I keep myself busy and I do eat as a comfort but am managing. My sons absence for 6 years and then the permanent loss but we need to b here for our other loved ones. Life is precious. Cant wait for the gardening days again soon.🌸
I came off all my medications early this year and im so glad i did! You have to do whats right for you but iv never heard of sertraline helping and i know quite a few ppl that have taken it and had similar problems. I know men arent great talkers however if there are any groups in your area or therapy centres, try looking into it. Coupled with more natural remedies, might help. Any way its good of you to talk about mental health as its something more of us suffer with than ppl think. Take good care of yourself and dont feel pressured to make videos if you arent feeling it. A break can do the world of good 😊
@wordandwater9027 exactly. Fear mongering is rampant anymore. People push their beliefs around after reading a scary story, or knowing 1 person who it didn't help. Some people actually need the help of medicine and to paint the wrong picture can push them away causing further damage to them in the immediate or near future.
Lord Jesus I ask in humility.that You might bless Jo and Kelly in this season of love and kindness . Father let them rest and be refreshed in heart and spirit for the new season ahead ..Lord Jesus comfort them with Your understanding and compassion i pray thank You Lord for they are such an inspiration to many I ask this in the Grace of Your Peace and thank You Lord Amen May God bless and keep you both safe see you next year .
Hi Joe, I am sorry you are having such a horrid time with the Sertraline. I hope with the help of your mental health team you can find a way through. Keep on keeping on, all the best ...
Joe I dont have much advice, as I struggle myself each day with severe chronic autoimmune diseases & pain. This in itself wipes me out & totally can spin me into a depression. Some days are better, some are close to impossible. I've struggled since I was 25 & I'm now 56. Also I have extreme hair loss also & I'm a female so it's a very hard thing to deal with...so hang in there, as a Male I think guys look great with no hair. As a previous nurse, you catch the flu from someone or somewhere not actually getting cold. If your body system is weakened sometimes it makes a virus, etc to grab onto you...if that makes sense. I haven't made videos on my channel for a couple months because I'm in a downward spiral & just trying to get better also. Take care & know that you are definitely not alone, as you can see from all your comments. I'm in USA & our medical care is extremely expensive. My meds are over 800.00/month & Dr & blood work is over 200.00 every 6 months. Its terrible. I also have the horrible sleep patterns, dragging feelings each day because of it. Being in the gardens help greatly but right now where I'm living...no place to garden. I hope to move back to my home area next year & go back to my gardening. Hate so much that Drs rush you & dont listen to the patient. Love seeing you & Kelly doing whatever y'all choose to do.
I couldn’t cope with setraline gave me terrible migraines 😞so stopped those ,as suffer enough with migraines and bad headaches ,good thing to do joe research on these things ,you take care joe 😊
Just goes to show, my OH has been on Sertraline for 6 years now - thats drug number 5 or 6 i think, and the first one thats actually made her human again. Thing with Sertraline is dosage - if you go in cold at a dosage like 100mg it'll mess you up for weeks until you get used to it. She stopped for a couple of weeks as she couldnt get to the docs for her script, and went back on the same dosage - mucked her up for a month!
I hopped on 100 right away and just kind of dealt with the side effect. Then upped it to 150 after two weeks and the side effects weren’t bad at all. What did she experience
I hate SSRIs. My experience with them is that they work by cutting off the sharp edges of depression, anxiety etc., but they also dull down happiness and enjoyment. They made me numb and uncaring. That’s it. They cannot make you happy or enthusiastic for life. And the higher the dose and longer the the course of “treatment” the worse the dullness becomes. I want to experience my life for what it is, both the good and the bad, highs and lows. I combat mood irregularity with Vitamin D, a healthful diet, daily strenuous exercise, as much time as i can get outdoors, hard, productive work, fun, and motivational V logs such as yours! Be so very careful with that stuff, Joe.
@@jcbanbury I carried on with life as usual, no real lows, but also no real highs. Just a general numbness about it all. That was when my medication was deemed “adjusted”. I was prescribed one brand that made me impatient, irritable, impulsive and out of control of my temper. It also had me thinking about sudden death for the first and only time in my life. I got off that one quickly! This isn’t candy. SSRI’s have serious effects on mood and personality.
I feel for ya mate I hated taking my meds to which I had to find an alternative to pharmaceutical drugs as it started to affect my liver and kidney function the still don't know if I've damaged them stay safe mate
I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through. I to have been fighting off a cold or who knows what. I miss turkey day with my family cause I was sick again. Don't feel like doing anything. It's hard to find the right combination when you are on different medications. You need a dr. who will sit down with you & take the time to lesson to you & go over each of the medication that you are taking or they want to give you. Are any of your meds. not working right with each other ? Don't think I said that right. I hope you know what I mean. Maybe you need a rest from doing video's for a while. We will all be here for you when you are ready. You need to take care of YOU. Like a said before you are very lucky to have Kelly in your life. It shows that she loves you very much & will stand with you no matter what. Just hang in there. Things will get better. God has a plane for you, you just don't see it right now. He is their for you. My thoughts & prayers go out for you & Kelly. LV U both. Your friend from the US. :)
j had a lot of mental health probs when i was in my mid thirties lasted about 8 years or so....tried various meds but found i had to be content with myself and no meds help that .....i found sertraline one of the worst meds to make me not feel like me ir was the last one i tried as it put me off any meds....i hope you find whats right for you and you get some peace of mind for yourself ....thats what its about....the clouds will darken a lot less often.....hash helps more than weed too ...all the best mate
Hi joe I know the felling you going thought as on the same medication and 100 MG for depression and anxiety Thank you for all your videos I have build same wooden beds and started my own videos
Hi Joe i dont normally comment but I can relate, im 28 so we are around the same age and I take 100mg sertraline for my OCD and also have IBS (Apparently). Although everyone will react to medication differently I found the first 3 months on sertraline to be tiring almost like fatigue and worsened depression daily, im studying plant science and I have a 2 year son and a supporting girlfriend/mother so it was hard. Im on them over a year this time around and My mood is leveled out and the OCD is more manageable, I wish you the best in your future. Finally the sexual dysfunction it is a long term problem and its a disaster when you are in your late 20's trying to come to terms that the purple pill is necessary 😂 Best of luck from Ireland.
i'm on a fair old cocktail of tablets. my first question to my doctor every time is " are they addictive ". i try to steer clear of anything that i could be dependent on.....................brian
about medicines, can you get the second opinion, and can you change yr diet without sugar and no gluten! i assume it will help. but you need to invest in it big time. there is a light at the end of the tunnel. huge hug.
Oh man I know what those meds are like. Was on those for a few months and they did the same to me as well. Some people do react like that, while others are just fine. My psych put me on endep, cut they knocked the crap out of me to but they were good for the pain...lol. Hang in there and hopefully things will settle soon. Big Hugs....
Hey there, you sound like you're a Londoner? I just subbed. I'm starting on sirtraline on Monday, after coming off a long course of fluoxetine so I'm interested to know how it will work with me. I found fluoxtetine left my head in a bit of a fluffy cloud, and that sertraline has a bit more of a stimulant effect
On my 5th week sertraline and I’m depressed, unmotivated , cannot not focus constantly 🥱 just feel like shit. I’ve been saying since week 2 this is the week I feel better but I honestly feel so much worse. If there’s no improvement next week Il be stopping and going back to see GP.
Hi Joe, i feel your pain with this drug (sertraline) as i was on 300mg at one stage. I was give 50mg and it went up in 50mg every couple of weeks till i was at 250mg with i was told was the limit then even though he said it was the limit he added another 50mg to make it 300mg and i had really bad side effects
Thanks for sharing your experience! How are you today? Are you actually off Sertraline considering this video was posted 2 years ago? I just started taking Sertraline last month and I am having some side effects too and I want some reassurance that one day I will be able to go off them and hopefully return to normal. Thanks a lot and take care!
I've been on this 12yrs 125mg it has destroyed my body and mind it makes you feel like a zombie life doesn't seem real almost virtual. ive gained a lot of weight as it slows my metabolism greatly i'm 16st use to be 12, i will say its good for anxiety but not depression or ocd my advice stay well clear of it, if you do only stay on it for 6months max.
I was on vacation and I ran out of my Sertraline pills so I bought them at the local pharmacy and they were the UK brand like the one you have and they totally messed me up. I have no idea what the difference is between the way the US makes there’s and the UK but it’s obviously different and I felt horrible the same things you said you experienced is what I experienced it was so bad and I was so low and sadder smh
I no where your at . My doctors have put me on strong pain killers due to an Ankle problems which I got while serving in the army . My sex drive as gone totally . Like yourself , my minds racing with the thought ,but that’s it nothing below or unable to sustain an any kind of erection . My partner is a total diamond . But I’m far from happy I’m not old enough never to have sex again . Not once in 4 year now . I’m with you mate
Man flu is no joke I've had it for over a week I feel as rough as a robbers dog mate. Hope you get better soon. I was on sertraline for a good while most of it I don't remember as it turned me in to a complete zombie. Like you sex drive non existent so according to x hubby I was messing around lol. Sooner you are off those the better. Not sure I've had a good time with any of them. Although I was taking duloxetine for my nerve pain which is an antidepressant mainly I got on really well with that. Until they mess up my deliveries and I spend 5 days withdrawing that's no joke and Dr seems to think I shouldn't be suffering withdrawal lol. Although it helped I came off it because I can't do the withdrawal. Just hope you find something that is a good balance for you Joe not allot of them are and you'll have to try so many to you find the right one but keep at it mate you'll get there.
I took sertraline 2 days. On second day, i looked in the mirror, my eyes 👀 were creepy wide open, black ⚫️ pupils. I then got dizzy, had to lay down and was unconscious for a few seconds. When i looked in the mirror, it didn't look like myself. It was not me, not my eyes looking back. So creepy. Ill never take it again. Not sure if it's a brain thing that makes you not recognize yourself in the mirror or some demonic spiritual stuff. Not going to try to figure it out. I just realized what happened to me is probably why some people end it all taking this drug.
Joe, please do be very careful. My daughter was on this drug when she committed suicide. She was about your age. I do NOT want to lose anyone else. Your pill basket is nothing! You should see the 2 storage containers I have, at 71 with an autoimmune disorder, I really support the prescription drug industry. LOL Take care.
So very sorry for your loss. I too deal everyday with several autoimmune diseases. I have the load of meds too. I'm now 56 but have dealt with it since I'm 25 after having a severe case of flu. I just never recovered. It's no joke to deal with autoimmune diseases.
Hey jo just a thought if you have Netflix or if not maybe on here somewhere have you watched game changer. It’s fascinating and probably right up your street given you love growing.
I would say speak to your doctor first in all honesty, maybe they can advise you on the best Treatment for your needs. I like many others suffered major side effects of taking such an SSRI and I wouldn’t recommend taking them unless you feel like you need them or you take the advice of your doctor.
Hey man. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm on day 3 of Zoloft and am concerned about continuing. It's such a hard decision. Funnily I was also prescribed an antipsychotic/mood stabiliser but I'm reluctant to go anywhere near that shit, they can seriously fuck you up. What did you try next? Did you have better luck?
I took fluoxetine for 4 days and right away it made my depression 10x worse and the thoughs weren't good, i stopped right away, 3 days have past and i still have anxiety and depression i dont know if i should try sertaline or a more natural way like cbd? Anyone have any experiences? Im also doing breathing exercises an ice bath every 2 days
At least you can still do some thi g! It will not last if you keep taking setraline. Inability, irritability, frustration. Soul and body in innihalation. For nobody knows how many years to come. Perhaps for life.
I Would Advise Anyone Taking Certraline Not To Because I Cant Keep My Balance Properly After Taking It And I Have Nodding Head Like A Nodding Plastick Dog That You Would See In The Back Of A Car

Totally agree. Similar happened to me over 7 Days. Worst week of my Life. Never again.
@waitwhat564 this happened to me 10 days ago. I feel good now. Drug free.
Joe, please do be very careful. My daughter was on this drug when she committed suicide. She was about your age. I do NOT want to lose anyone else. Your pill basket is nothing! You should see the 2 storage containers I have, at 71 with an autoimmune disorder, I really support the prescription drug industry. LOL Take care.
So sorry for your loss.
@@shannonstephens4245 TY
So very sorry for your loss.
I too deal everyday with several autoimmune diseases. I have the load of meds too. I'm now 56 but have dealt with it since I'm 25 after having a severe case of flu. I just never recovered. It's no joke to deal with autoimmune diseases.
@@redgingerbreadpam " It's no joke to deal with autoimmune diseases." Amen to that!
@@redgingerbreadpam 25! Yikes I've only had this for 10 years. It's called PBC, silly autoimmune system I wonder if they can be reset? LOL Take care.
Hey jo just a thought if you have Netflix or if not maybe on here somewhere have you watched game changer. It’s fascinating and probably right up your street given you love growing.
I love that docu!
Also what do you mean by you don't recognise yourself?
Not depressed but have anxiety and the physical symptoms that come with it... tight chest, discomfort in chest etc. Will this help?
I would say speak to your doctor first in all honesty, maybe they can advise you on the best
Treatment for your needs. I like many others suffered major side effects of taking such an SSRI and I wouldn’t recommend taking them unless you feel like you need them or you take the advice of your doctor.
I’m supposed to start tomorrow. Does anyone have an advice?
I have several videos on this subject
Hey man. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm on day 3 of Zoloft and am concerned about continuing. It's such a hard decision. Funnily I was also prescribed an antipsychotic/mood stabiliser but I'm reluctant to go anywhere near that shit, they can seriously fuck you up. What did you try next? Did you have better luck?
How have you gotten on?
@@sophiephantomhive6467 I stopped before getting too deep with it
@@liamc7097
Did everything return back to normal for you? I toom this for 2 days and won't be taking it again.
@@kathylyndsey316 The drug didn't have any long term effects on me after 3 days of use put it that way
@@liamc7097Thanks for getting back. Did you experience a low libido or emotional numbness whilst taking the pills?
I took fluoxetine for 4 days and right away it made my depression 10x worse and the thoughs weren't good, i stopped right away, 3 days have past and i still have anxiety and depression i dont know if i should try sertaline or a more natural way like cbd? Anyone have any experiences? Im also doing breathing exercises an ice bath every 2 days
At least you can still do some thi g! It will not last if you keep taking setraline. Inability, irritability, frustration. Soul and body in innihalation. For nobody knows how many years to come. Perhaps for life.
I think you will feel better if you take Zoloft with vyvanse
Not me me I’m afraid 😳
Do you experiance hair loss from Zoloft?
Yes you can experience hair loss from Zoloft.

I Would Advise Anyone Taking Certraline Not To Because I Cant Keep My Balance Properly After Taking It And I Have Nodding Head Like A Nodding Plastick Dog That You Would See In The Back Of A Car
Sertraline is overrated. Fluvoxamine underrated.
The made me feel like a robot numb no motivation and did nothing for anxiety
All the best mate.
My man, I feel the same like you. Day 9 and Im quitting this shit drug..
It’s terrible mate, let me know how you get on and message me if you need any help!
@@diggingfordinner I feel horrible atm, I was on a party tonight. Couldnt focus on the conversations without being interrupted by analytical thoughts.. Dunno if you experience the same issue. But I felt like I was ”fake happy” all night..
Didnt take Sertraline today, but I feel like my brain is totally broken :/
@@mattiasalke7558 I am an relate man to that 100% mate I’m fake happy 99% of the time even through my videos!! How are you dealing with things? You’re welcome to call me 🤙 I’m happy to pass my number through Facebook now
@@diggingfordinner I took another 50mg today since I couldnt sleep at all last night. My anxiety has increased due to this mist Im in right now. Have a terrible brain fog.. Feels like a part of the brain has shut down temporarly. Cant focus on anything, just walking around indoors hoping this fog will go away.. :/
Sure, can you find me on facebook? I have the same namn as here :)
you should have started on 25mg
How come
True. Thats the baseline. You cant go wrong with 25mg on a starting point.
@@ThisBeanTofu Can’t go wrong?
Do you think you have covid?
Covid is not real
@@jcbanbury my dad died with covid and I’m a nurse.
@@Tahir9987 'with covid' i take it he got tested for covid?
@@jcbanbury hahaha
Are you 33 now? I am 💃
I’m 32 now and I’making a new video on sertraline this week! I am no longer on it and will explain why
@@diggingfordinner Really? I'm about to take one now. Are they safe? I have to take these and Welbutrin together.
@@JuneCarpenter35 Mo they are not safe at all, please do what you feels you need to in order to feel better and if you need to talk you can drop me a phone number and I will call you up for a chat.
