man, i drink too much, smoke too much.
fuck, i have calluses on my fingers from opening beer bottles too often, and nicotine stains on my fingers from smoking too much...im only fucking 20 years old... i hear stories of youth suicide, and i dont think 'damn, thats unfortunate', but instead think of how fucked things can be, how emotion, money, and life can get me down, nad how im not alone, but alive... why do i find life so hard as to resort to this crap? why do i listen to music that to most is depressing, but to me lifts me up for the companionship it provides for the feeling of depression that overwhlems me. fuck it why!?!?!?!?! me, rant, needed to type this, dont care if you respond, just needed it... --------------------   |

Not necessarily. For some yes. For others, clinical depression can go into long periods of remission. Some life events can trigger periods of depression that linger long after the normal psychological healing has occurred. The drugs can help lift one out of that dark chasm and into remission without the need for continued drug use. Others will have a life long dependency on them. The answer is not necessarily. I suspect but do not conclude that the relative youth of some of the board members might be a factor and yes they might grow out of it similar to how people grow out of childhood asthma. Still, that is small comfort to someone who is enduring depression and drugs seem to be a small price to pay for relief and an opportunity to enjoy life as oppose to enduring it. Taking drugs is not attractive but when you are locked into a feelings of despair and hopelessness with no apparent reason (the reasons are internally organic), it is definitely a superior alternative. There is also a related condition called bipolar disorder where one endures alternating periods of mania and depression. Mania is not always easily recognized at first. Newer drugs like Effexor start to work quicker and have less side effects than many of the older ones. This post has been edited by amourdevin: Jun 2 2004, 02:26 PM |
