A study published in the Chemical Engineering Journal describes a strategy to produce a material based on zinc oxide (ZnO) capable of degrading sertraline, an antidepressant that has been detected, like other drugs, in groundwater worldwide and is considered an emerging pollutant. This kind of substance has certain physicochemical properties that hinder removal by conventional wastewater treatment methods. The research was conducted in Brazil by scientists at the Center for Development of Functional Materials (CDMF), the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA), the Federal University of Alfenas (UNIFIL), and the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB).

Hi! You are totally free to ignore this but I just wanted to say something re: your sertraline because you said something along the lines of "fuck my chemicals" when you didnt have your sertraline for 3 days.
Sertraline is notorious for, like, BRUTAL withdrawals. I was scared of "my chemicals" for a long time bc I thought the sertraline withdrawals WERE my chemicals. That wasn't the case at all
This isn't to disparage or insult you, and I hope it doesn't come across that way. I just see a lot of people not realize how bad sertraline withdrawals are and panic because they think how they feel 2-3 days without meds is who they are as a person. S'just the withdrawals.
(Also for future reference, if you ever wean off sertraline with a doctor, the withdrawals last 30-60 days. I see a lot of ppl panic about that too, including myself.)
No that’s a good point thank you for the message, the withdrawals are brutal and I’m sure that’s what this is. My chemicals before sertraline sucked too I have panic disorder but you’re right ♥️ got my meds and I’m back on them tonight so 🤞

I don't hear enough people talk about the side effects of medication, especially when you're starting a new medication.
Chronically ill people are significantly likelier to experience an increased number of side effects, and considering that we're some of the people that take the most medication this absolutely sucks.

tw suicidal ideation !!
using sertraline nearly ended my life for the first three weeks of me being on it. I was crying all the time, I was shaking, I was violently anxious, it made my anxiety 100 times worse. I hate hate hate physical contact and I hate being near my parents, but it literally got to the point of my mother having to sleep in my bed with me to reduce my anxiety, and there's never been a moment in my life where I had to have her sleep in my bed. i broke down heavily on my friend, crying for hours on end while he just experienced it and gave me head pat's and hugs. i was in constant pain (more than normal), i was always on edge and i had permanent headaches. it was /horrendous/. absolutely horrific. I genuinely got to the point of wanting to either end the medication or ending my life, it was awful.
however !!!!! three weeks in and I plateaued. I've been on it for almost a year now, I think, and I'm genuinely the best I've ever been. I can do human things. I am constantly calm and I do not remember the last time I felt nervous about anything. my depression is lurking but it does, and it will. but I'm working now, and I'm going into town by myself, going for drinks by myself, I'm so much more...human. friendly. kind. I feel normal for the first time.
I came to tumblr for some information and relief about my side effects during the first three weeks and it was the only thing that made me feel better and made me keep going with it..
basically my point is, people here helped me, and I might be able to help others find a positive side to starting antidepressants. and please !!! keep going through the beginning few weeks of your antidepressants. it's worth it, i promise.
(sincerely, one of the rare success stories of sertraline users)

Tw: sewicide @ttempt (details)
I attempted last night with 25 Sertraline 50mg pills. I didn't work and now I want to jump off a rooftop but it doesn't matter.
I wanted to share you the effects of a (failed) Sertraline overdose cuz I think it's interesting.
The act. I wanted to take it and try to sleep as fast as possible to die during the night. So I took the pills at 9pm, drank a little bit of alcohol to increase its effects and went in my bed.
Symptoms. Tachycardia is the first one noticeable... and the most annoying in fact cuz I haven't slept a single minute because of it. It is like doing sport so I was extremely tired but couldn't sleep because of it. The second most visible is shaking, like I shaked really bad and still do a little actually (24h after). I also had an infernal migraine, and it took 20 hours to go away - stomach aches too. My body was logically very stressed so I was very anxious; and I heavily dissociated (still dissociated actually). The symptom that surprised me the most was hallucinations. A few hours after the intake, I started seeing shadows moving, even one transformed into a small monster but I ran away lol. My vision was blurred so everything I couldn't perfectly see (the lights were off) was transforming into something, I even saw my mom, and my cat multiple times too. I also saw colored dots randomly appearing and disappearing. But the most surprising was the voices. I was literally hearing voices calling me and walking sounds, wich was very annoying because I was like "maybe this time it's real" and it wasn't, I verified with her. A last one is total anedonia, so I actually hate my life more than before lmao.
Afterwards. It's been 24 hours now and I still shake a little, my heartbeats are a little faster than before but nothing very annoying. I don't have appetite/food cravings rn and I think the reason of that is anedonia. I sincerely felt like I was dying for hours , and hoped I would have a heart attack due to tachycardia but I'm still here lmao. I feel fine actually (I mean no physical pain) Tell me if you think this was interesting to read. Ps: I also skipped small symptoms cuz there was a lot.
