Let’s get one thing clear: this isn’t an anti-medication moment.
If anything, it’s the opposite.
For the last couple of years, I’ve been sharing my antidepressant journey on TikTok— not because I had to, but because I wanted people to see that medication can be a lifesaving tool. That needing chemical help for a chemical imbalance isn’t weird, dramatic, or shameful. It’s actually really normal.
I never set out with the goal of getting off antidepressants. The goal was always just to feel stable, safe, and steady — and for a long time, meds made that entirely possible.
But recently, after a lot of work with my doctor and therapist… I got the all clear to stop taking them. And that felt like something worth documenting too.
Because healing isn’t linear & moments like this deserve space too. 😊💌
