4 months back on antidepressants!🤩💊 TW: suicide 7 years ago I attempted suicide and turned my life around for the better. After recovering I foolishly told myself I would never need medication again. I was struggling with my depression again in the fall, and I felt like a failure. My coping skills weren’t working, and it felt like I had lost all of my growth. Even though I talk about it a lot, reaching that dark place again for myself made me feel like I was a liar, that I couldn’t talk about mental health if only from a healed placed, as if everyone was let down. I was scared. I didn’t want to be there again. I love my life, and I knew what this path could be like. I finally had the courage to tell my psychiatrist that I think I need antidepressants again. When bringing it up, I was concerned or: losing/gaining weight, loss of sex drive, feeling worse. I had tried a number of meds in the past and didn’t want any of those. So my doctor put my on Wellbutrin. I’ve been on Well...
