    Going to the psychiatrist and getting medicated 💊

    Happened a year ago, after i almost made an attempt on my life, my parents took me to a doctor that gave me a couple of meds that i’ve been taking ever since.

    They made me feel nauscious and ill at first, but a couple of weeks after, i felt refreshed, i was sleeping well, and i was (slowly) feeling better emotionally.

    I’m fine now, and my dosis is now minimal compared to what i started with. Now i have a better support group and meds if my body decides not to produce the necessary neuro-chemicals i need to endure the hardships of life. 🧠 (Seriously, the human body is sometimes really stupid).

      I’m thrilled you’ve made it to a good place! Getting help can be tough - so many people just don’t - and I’m glad your parents were able to help you get rolling on that.

      Nothing wrong with better living through (responsible) chemistry if your own neurochemical reserves are stingy.
