Internet is on my phone, but it'll do. Yay, pocket computers! Did I mention I'm on Prozac?

Don't lecture me about religion! For the love of deities both great and small, I am not depressed because I haven't found Christ! My uncle is a pastor. I grew up being taught that Christianity is the only way. I was depressed then too. My problem isn't that I'm stuck in my own problems, it's that I have a chemical imbalance, coupled with not-quite-PTSD from the last few years of living with my mother. I don't know how to be selfish, and honestly, telling a depressed person to stop taking their medication and "give their problems to god" sounds like a recipe for suicide. I believe all religions are equally valid, and all gods exist, whether only one person believes, or many. Even if some gods are egotists, who command their followers to preach ignorance. I would love to give Christianity an equal chance, but it gets so fucking difficult when you spend fifteen minutes telling me that your religion is the only way to beat back my inner demons. You gave me a ride home. I didn't ask for a sermon, and a reading list.

I'm starting to think I'm the only one with problems. That's encouraging. *sigh*
Complaining about my meds again. I knew there was a reason for me being terrified of the idea of taking pills. I keep going back and forth between wanting to grab myself by the hair and smash my head against a kerb, and wanting to curl up in bed and skip the day. I don't like feeling like this. Why won't it stop? I just want it to stop. I want to feel normal (for me) again, but I don't remember what that feels like, anymore. I don't know what a functional adult is supposed to act like. I've never had a very good example. I'm making it up as I go along, and I'm surviving, but I don't want to live just to survive. I'm seriously thinking Prozac isn't the solution I need.

no, you are not the only one. i've been on prozac for several years now, and i'm still messed up. they recently added an extra medicine to go along with it and all it does is make me slightly less hostile to things that would normally annoy the crap out of me. they also make me soooooooo sleeeepppyyyyyyyy...... don't feel too bad. i'm 36 years old and still screwy...but at least i'm a good person
