So, my therapist is referring me to a psychiatrist who she’ll work with to diagnose me, but currently she is leaning towards a social anxiety disorder with depression.
Firstly, I didn’t realize SAD was an actual disorder so I hadn’t considered it before.
But…I feel really crushed. I’m not trying to use SAD as an excuse or anything, but it feels like conscious brain knows what I should be doing as a communist, but my subconscious instinct over protects me and prevents me from actually being able to be social and organize and such. I just feel like such a useless sack of meat.
If anyone else here has suffered with this, could I ask for some advice, please?
my friend…the same thing i have…i was afraid that meds would make me a happy zombie, but you have to learn that antidepressants just take the sadness off, but don’t make you happy, you make yourself happy. you can keep being a communist, little steps are better than no steps
