I think (think) ssri’s just change the dosings in unpredictable ways, so in that situation you would start with a lowish dose of mushrooms to see how hard it hits you and then increase the attempted dose on subsequent attempts separated out by a bunch of days.
I’m not a doctor or an expert in any way, just speaking from the experiences of other people i know about
Sorry to hear that. I have no idea about Australian health care, but are you sure your primary care doctor can’t prescribe those meds for you? They might be more willing to prescribe the non-stimulant meds. It’s worth asking them if you aren’t 100% sure they won’t.
Also, i definitely strongly suggest researching psilocybin mushrooms. Of course do some research first and see if there are any reasons for you personally not to do them. But yeah, they make a huge improvement in many people’s lives
You can be me for awhile if you want, but it would be a lateral move. At least the scenery would be different?
