Misc Sertraline & Epilim Chrono

[WeBank]

Been offered 100mg Sertraline tabs just as surplus meds, currently taking Valium for depression, just to find out how effective these are?

Also got a shit tonne of Epilim Chrono here, came from a Bipolar patient, just to see if there's any use for them, got a full box of 300mg tabs.

both of those are pretty serious psychiatric drugs and don't really have any abuse potential.

Unless you are like me and have tons and tons of drugs in your first-aid kit because you think the world is going to end like me it's not really worth the space required to keep these around.

Unless they are prescribed by a doctor do not take them. They have no recreational effects if that's what your asking about. Why are you taking Valium for depression? Your taking a benzodiazepine for depression and scoring psych meds off the street. Everything about this situation is backwards.

^ I'll second that. The Valium won't work for depression, just anxiety, and even then they just work OK, and not for long periods of time.
If you are truly seeking help for depression, you should be seeing a psychiatrist and taking an SSRI, but there is no telling if Sertraline is right for you, and you may develop serious depression or difficulties while taking that medication, so it should always be under supervision of a doctor.
The only reason I would take this medication into my possession would be, like I said, for use in my first-aid kit in case someone I knew ran out of medication or something. I guess it could be useful if one of your friends or family members is on SSRI's or SNRI's and you are worried about them ruunning out of meds or getting cut off of their prescription or something.
