I need to improve my concentration span.
For the past few years I've realised I can't really commit to almost anything. Even things I am interested in like films and games. I used to read a lot. Nowdays, no chance. This is seriously impacting me, I feel completely unsatisfied and aimless. All I do is browse the Internet on my phone. I've deleted all social media on my phone/life but it was never really that. Its just mindless browsing. I do take Sertraline for depression and I'm thinking it could be that, but not too sure.

It's fallen off a cliff this year. But I still had issues even beforehand. Definitely something I need to improve though.

Excluding cases where there's a legitimate medical issue, concentration is a "muscle". Practise using it and you'll get better at it.

I've been scrolling through 9gag in excess of 8 hours today.
I have some experience of where you're coming from and think the cause isn't necessarily concentration. What it is, though, i couldn't say. Lack of motivation is too easy, as is depression. It's as though at times i'm so severly bored that even the thought of alieviating that boredom is exhausting. Energy levels drop by conviction until all I want to do is sleep - exciting dreams become a worthwhile entertainment for a while, but it's not long before they take on an energy of their own and start to trouble my rest. Ofcourse that cycles back into itself making me feel overrested and rundown, like the excess energy is breaking down and begining to corrode my mind.

>concentration is a "muscle". Practise using it and you'll get better at it.
Trite perhaps, but have you considered meditation? There're certain types by which you concentrate on an imaginary red dot (or what ever) for as long as possible - the catch is you relax into it rather than make an effort with clenched fists. The effect has actually been studied too, with brain imagery showing actual development of the relatied areas.
I haven't bothered to try this (no shit, eh?), but the meditation i have engaged with in the past has produced some suprising effects. I'd recommend giving it a sincere try if the thought doesn't repulse you.

Is it possible that you have things back to front? And it isn't that you can't concentrate but you don't have anything worth concentrating on?

I'm going to try and practice. Via concentration and putting myself through a programming course I am interested in. Thanks for suggestions all.

Very possible. When given stuff to do in work that has urgency I tend to concentrate very well.

OP here, was considering making a new thread but doesn't really warrant.

I've been on a low dose of Sertraline for a year now and have just been given 10mg Citalopram to take. I'm a little bit nervous about it to be honest. The first few weeks on Sert were Hell for me, and I'm always a bit of a fanny taking drugs, fun or otherwise.

Citalopram ruined orgasms for me I would swear against anyone taking it ever.

Well the inevitable follow up question is - what is there that you think you cound give that much of a shit about? what is worth fighting for to you?

To be fair Sertraline has already done that for me unfortunately.

>Citalopram ruined orgasms for me

It had the opposite effect for me - it took hours of brutal hand-to-gland combat to actually get there, but the payoff was tremendous.

Just come off sertraline myself, it got me through the stress of the past few months but they gave me the shits.
Withdrawal is a fucking nightmare though, I tapered the dose over several weeks, now after 2-3 weeks of not taking it I'm still suffering some vertigo and dizziness.

(Es)citalopram was similar, I had to fuck like a jackhammer for a good 45 minutes to actually get there. Some of the lasses I was with at the time were absolute troopers (or more likely they just loved getting shagged fucking rotten).

On the other hand venlafaxine had the same delaying effect but when I finally got there there was no actual pleasure at all, just a sort of wet dick fart. I got off the pills pretty quick-sharp after that. If life was fucking miserable already then taking sexual pleasure off the table wasn't going to make it any better.

Sage for self-blog of very little relevance.

6 times I have seen this image, and I have had to go for a wank. I think it is the thighs...

I need to block it.

I've been thinking the same for the past couple of days about her, if it's any comfort.

Mirtazapine isn't any good for concentration either. It sent me to sleep quite well and promoted some crazy dreams, but also made me really hungry during the day. Don't think I've ever eaten so many Tunnock's caramel wafers.
As for shagging and wanking, it was the same for me as before, during and after taking it.

I'm not sure if I'd be comfortable ejaculating in a woman who had no hands. I suppose that makes me an ableist bastard.
