If you do not want to go on it- do not feel pressured to go on them! My psychologist always tells me that there are so many ways to naturally boost serotonin, without the need of SSRI’s! But also from my personal experience, there was a time where SSRI’s really helped me out of a bad funk, and then I slowly went off them and therapy really assisted the road of feeling good again!
