Comment by Durkl on My 10-year retrospective on trying SSRIs · 2024-09-23T19:17:19.154Z · LW · GW

I've had SSRIs for 2 years. Then got off of them. They covered up a lot of stuff and I finally dealt with it once I got off of them. Now I'm back on them though, but on a half dose. It's easy enough to keep noticing the stuff I want to work on, while also giving me a bit of 'thicker skin'. What I'm trying to say with my experience is: although SSRIs can cover stuff up, the degree to which they do so might be dose dependent.
