I'm so sorry she would ever say something like that to you, Minimog. That's just silly and I'm glad that you know better. Make sure you talk to someone you trust other than your mum who takes mental health conditions seriously ๐งก

2025-04-25 22:24:27 +0000 UTCEverything I just heard about that "medication is permanent" myth will inform my conversation with my therapist later today. The fact that I've been on medication for eight years, and I haven't seen an improvement with my depression, even with the maximum legally allowed dose, is concerning to me. I don't think it's JUST depression, I think it's something more underlying and chronic, and I'm just making the symptoms bearable instead of treating it. I wish I could see someone with actual authority to make a diagnosis, but I've been on the waitlist for a psychiatrist since 2022, and I don't see myself getting off of it any time soon.
