    Also f*** negativity in general and being subjected to pessimistic people. Idk if I'm just changing or what's up with me but I also just don't like dark humor, or things highly explicit.

    Fry's my brain, makes the world seem awful place, and I think people may just keep themselves there.

    Im going to just avoid it with blind faith that there is "better" out there. Tired of this s***, tired, tired, tired.

    I want to believe

    This is part of the reason I hate Rick and Morty. Just ironic detachment and random/dark humor with no consequences.

    lol yeah, it’s a long time waiting but overall its nothing. Interested in your journey. I choose to not take any meds, as I’m still managing okay, but otherwise itd wouldve been SSRIs too. So yeah, hope everything will get better for you. Fertilizer to a plant 🌱 🙏. Much love bro

    Not cry, but I have a hard time trusting that people actually like me. So I'm constantly overthinking s*** and coming up with scenarios, sometimes I let it build too much. I start to believe the fantasies.

    Some weeks I’m just like… damn, this just not it and I’d rather take nothing.. even if I can’t identify what makes me feel that way, that makes me think that I might just be short on serotonin

    Same about looking around you and getting depressed because of it.

    It seems like you’re more sensitive than the average person. There’s research that suggests that people with an increased sensitivity often have a genetic variation that lowers serotonin levels.

    I’m not on anything right now…

    Hmm well fingers crossed that this does the trick for me and my sensitive ass. a mfer just wants to be consistently happy lol. You thinking you might try and give some meds a shot or nah?
