talk to your doctor. tell them how you feel and what’s going on and they’ll likely prescribe something

Fr ab the health center! And if u can figure out a way to afford it i highly recommend doing one of those genetic tests that tell you if youd be a good fit for which meds i never did that and just tried all of them and that sucked ngl. Turns out antidepressants dont work on me and im actually bipolar and need mood stabilizers lol

I haven’t gone to the doctor in years unfortunately. I just graduated high school and I don’t have insurance

are you in college? your university might have a health center where you can see a doctor for much cheaper than if you were to go to a clinic

Yeah I’ve been off SSRIs for almost 7 years and I still get brain zaps, I don’t recommend. But if it’s gonna stop you from wanting to end it all and it’s the only thing that helps, maybe brain zaps are kinda worth it?

If you have a therapist see if they have any recommendations for a psychiatrist. They’ll be better help than a general dr.
