Why are some people so bright and happy? How great it would be if I can buy a bottle of joie de vivre and gulp it down prn.
Living with a major depression that recurs every 2 years or so has seriously dampened my will to live. Just when I get the hang of things, I'd be bothered by feelings of emptiness. Frustratingly looking for something I don't know.
Standing on a precipice and about to fall off. Prayers, SSRIs, family and dear friends barely holding me up. The good days self promises of not doing "it" wavers. I try my best not to be selfish and go off on my own.
I think everyone's made with a factory defect and mine is an unfortunate lack of dopamine. When I hear of someone giving up the fight, I understand more than others do, pray and hope that they'd be forgiven for being weak.
Its easy for people to say it's all in the mind when they dont know anything about it. If you get a knee wound, you cleanse it with peroxide, apply an antiseptic and drink an antibiotic. But how about the mind, who many scientists consider the last frontier? How do you cure the thinking machine?
