Do it anyways.

Give it a go anyways, it’s medicine. It alters your brain chemistry. For some it’s effective, for others not.

Depressed people are pessimistic because they are depressed, so everything you’re saying I’m literally just ignoring and telling you to get the help you need.

I likely have a personality disorder too, otherwise I wouldn’t be required to job hop every year. Which I completely ignore. See how that works? If I don’t want help, or even see a reason for help, then nobody can help me anyways.

Only reason my depression got treated was because I was self aware and wanted help there. The moment I had suicidal thoughts because of an episode, I just went to the doctor the next day and got medication. Been on meds for 2 years now, never better.

Psychologist said I have mild autism, but she’s probably wrong on that. But what do I know, she’s the one with a PhD and decades of work experience. I just don’t see it.

Depression has episodes. Which means that at some times you will feel surges of energy. It’s up to you to start doing anything you can to keep supplying your brain with serotonine then. Can do this by working out for example.

How much would a SSRI cost for you?

I have a lot of energy because I exercise daily, eat a lot of food, get enough sleep and take sipralexa 10 mg daily

Basically the opposite of depression, no idea if this is harmful aha but it feels damn good

No I do not, life is fun. You know why? I’m on a serotonine medication

It’s the 21st century. Don’t be unhappy. Be happy. It’s better.
