    urr its actually not physically addictive and some people would definatly dissagree with u bout it not doing anything!

    Its unlikely u would get given it unless u have tried other things like counselling for instance. This would be offered first and usually prozac or any drug is offered along with that if they think its serious enough.

    god you're a wanker fat mike. prozac is for DEPRESSION, it doesnt give you a high! lolly's on about how it does have an effect on people with actual depression.

    dont know why i bother explaining stuff to you actually, your 2 brain cells unfortunately dont co-operate with each other so theres very little point!!

    valium is a tranquiliser, not an antidepressant.

    Prozac pretty much is the half way point between MDMA and 5HTP...

    MDMA releases all at once the brains storage of seritone (yes I know the spelling)

    5HTP builds up the brains stores of seritone (taking up to 2 weeks to complete)

    Prozac puts a block on the brains receptors which release seritone, therefore the brain maintains high sertitone levels at all times (hopefully making the person happier)

    Thats why people who are on prozac report MDMA not to work that well as the receptors are blocking the release of seritone.

    Quickly adding... Mike, the reason why the prozac won't of affected you is because it takes time, its not releasing/creating anything, all its doing it putting a block in place, over time Prozac can help heighten peoples moods because of levels of seritone which have built up in the brain... its a lengthy treatment and takes a week or two of continuous use before effects are noticed.

    Wow, Neural Biochemistry 101, sign me up please!!

    Actually I have been to a student counsellor claiming depression and they tried to determine just how depressed I was before prescribing anything. In retrospect I'm glad, another batch of drugs at that time wouldn'tve helped.

    On the other hand if I'd been in America I would've been drugged to the eyeballs and then thrown in a loony bin.

    Wanker.
    Enough saied.


    .. St johns wort will only work in very high doses (900 mg and more per day), is pricey and only works for milde depression.

    St Johns wort is good to take on comedowns from pills. I quite often do.

    It is a bit pricey though.

    st johns wort also has other side effects... someone i know has developed lupus as a result of taking this. and also it can reduce the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill.

    thanks for explaining those things justin <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    uurrr yea ok then lmfao! Prozac levels out the serotonin levels when they are low (ie someone with depression!) so u probably didnt have a low serotonin level anyway. Im not sure how it would affect someone who is already normal but who givbes a fuck anyway coz people who r normal shouldnt be taking it should they!!!
    I know a few people who didnt find prozac helpfull but I know more who it worked wonders for. Drugs work different for different people...just coz it did nothing for u dont mean it wouldnt help anyone else u know!

    Sorry but this dont ring true if u ask me. LSD is well known for hightening whatever u feel at the time...this is why so many people have a bad time. If u r depressed or stressed or anything like that and u do LSD it wont be a nice experience itll only make what u already feel a whole lot fucking worse. Ive been there and done that and learnt the hard way, so I find it hard to beleive u had a nice time on it if u took it when u felt so shit.
    You may be right, but as far as Ive heard and read and been through LSD isnt likely to do u any favours if u r doing it when u r already shitty...Ive never knwon it to help anyone when they havent been in a good frame of mind beforehand!

    mike, you're a joke. stop all your bullshitting, it isn't impressing anybody. u just sound like a sad little child who has to lie to make himself look 'better'

    lolly every time i have taken lsd i have always taken other drugs either before or after i have taken it. usually when i take it i do about 250mg of mdam before and wait for it 2 hit me, then when i am feeling really happy i take the lsd, so i don't have a bad trip i always prepare myself so that is why i don't freak out. and i never freak out and never will.

    This is called a candy-flip and is a good idea but only if your used to both drugs already. Done this many times before and it makes the trip a lot better and you ahve less chance of freaking out coz the MDMA make you luved-up!

  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    yea ok, that makes a bit more sense then. However can I just add that u have to do it b4 the trip or it can work the opposite. When I first done a trip (one of a few times coz I fucking hate the shit!) I followed it with an E (I had never done) and speed and magic mushrooms (also never done). I ended up having a nast trip that lasted 3 times what it should have due to the other shit I took with it...not nice and definatly not worth doing.
    I know a bloke who used to do a lot of LSD and is now in a psychiatric unit for drug induced psychosis...he isnt in the real world anymore and that was a direct result of taking LSD as much as he did. Im not a fan of trips to be honest!
