Checkmate big Pharma, I’m a poster-pilled serotonin factory now. I’ve seized the memes of endorphin production and liberated myself from Capitalism. Posting is praxis and I’ll cry if anyone tells me otherwise, so you better not! You’d hate it. I’m a real ugly cryer.

    Two things that have helped me see mental health meds better:

    1. The right combination of medications does not make it easier to cope. It makes coping less necessary in the first place.
    2. You’re not just supposed to be along for the ride when it comes to your emotions. Everyone is swept away by their emotions sometimes, but most people can experience their emotions without numbing them while still having a baseline of control over them.

    Both of these things are helped by therapy and practicing new skills, but for me, neither of them would be possible without my meds
