Yeah honestly **** medication man. My depression comes and goes for no real reason and i'd say it was pretty mild so I am never going to tell anyone about it. Last thing I want is some **** doctor trying to force me onto some medication.
Honestly I really don't even know what mental illness I have, maybe none at all and I am just making something out of nothing. I go weeks, even months feeling fine, and then I suddenly switch. But even when I switch, I always wake up in the morning feeling normal and not depressed. But by the time I go to bed I often seriously ****ing depressed, full of semi suicidal thoughts but never serious enough to actually act on them. Just thoughts like "the easiest way to deal with this problem is to just die, thats tempting.." but i never do, obviously, 'cus im here. And that kind of **** will last for 3 to 6 months, and then disappear. I will feel normal again for a while, sometimes a long while. Then one day it just comes back overnight. It's so ****ing weird I have no idea if their is a medical diagnosis for it. Overall I still feel better than I did a year ago so no biggie. It sounds weird but in a way it is really frustrating that my emotions completely reset overnight. Sometimes I have cried myself to sleep, and then wake up full of energy ready for the day ahead, excited to start doing some new project at work. And then as each hour passes the follow day, my mental state just deteriorates. I wake up on a 10/10, maybe I lose 0.5 on that scale per hour. So 16 hours later late in the evening, I feel like a 2/10 on some kind of happyness/contentment scale, if that makes sense. I dont get it.
In other news, I am drinking a lot tonight for no real reason other than I can't get any weed because ****ing feds shut down AlphaBay and Hanza
- I never drink, other than the occasional weak cider every month or so. I have had about 500ML of Prosecco (11% volume) and my head is spinning, lmao. It's crazy how much of a lightweight even a 250lb dude like me can become when you don't drink for long periods of time.
edit:
Also totally random unrelated point, how much do your Americans on here respect and appreciate the fact you have so much free land to explore and play with ? Just like, if I buy an off road dirt bike in the UK, it's really difficult to find places to ride it. In the US it seems like you just drive for 20 minutes and you are in vast open spaces of unoccupied land where you can do what you want. Jelly.
