My current psychiatrist and my previous psychiatrist offered to put me on Effexor (Venlafaxine - An SNRI) but I said no (Not yet).

I never tried it. I should try a low dose (25-37.5mg) and see if it could help with my symptoms;

"Sadness, unhappiness
Loss of interest in enjoyable activities
Anger, frustration, irritability
Sleep changes (too much or too little)
Feelings of worthlessness
Thoughts of death or suicide; suicidal attempts
Weight loss or weight gain"

A little serotonin to lift my mood, a little more norepinephrine for alertness and ADHD.. Why not?

I'll taper off of phenibut completely, stop smoking weed and stop using psilocybin mushrooms.

I should give it a try... Cuz self medicating is extremely mentally exhausting.
