Hello. This is my short story. Several times in my life in the short period I took an antidepressant. Also a meds for calm. The doctor says I should have been taking meds for longer. Have you been depressed or anxious? Do you take any meds?

I take an antidepressant, a booster for the antidepressant, a mood stabilizer, and anti-anxiety meds. I'm not ashamed of it because they help me to function and be happy. I also take other meds for asthma, blood pressure, and cholesterol.

Unfortunately I have severe anxiety. Many people don't believe that what I feel is real. I take meds and I am trying therapy. I also have panic attacks.

@Moon24 No. My therapist doesn't know what to do anymore. She told me to accept this life.

@Moon24 No, I never went to the doctor. I wish I had money to go to a good psychiatrist.
