>>22671209It's pretty hard to type out in a way that it would make sense, but I can try.
I have always suffered from depression I suppose, it runs in my family, and this country as a whole has very high rates of depression ( due to multiple factors). I took meds when I hit puberty because of all the instability that comes with puberty I was a mess. They were pretty strong, so I decided to ween off them at age 14. I dealt with it myself without any meds. It's been fine I suppose. Now that I'm a bit older, multiple stressful factors have been thrown into the mix, and I feel the way I am reacting is due to chemical imbalances ect (I hated having to admit it to myself, it felt scapegoat-y) and I feel like instead of holding onto my pride, I should just start taking meds to just help with the imbalances. I don't think my stubbornness about meds is helpful at this point, since I've lost people important to me, and can't function as well as I'd like to.
Sorry if that made no sense, I tried my best without writing my life story and bawwing ect.
>>22671221The manic pixie dream girl is usually approached though, and the protagonist spews something pointless and the mpdg will start opening about about her philosophies about the world and life.
>>22671227I've thought about it, but the laws around here are pretty tight, so is my budget. It's also almost impossible to get your hands on, esp as a female.
