npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) this is amazing. Just yesterday I was thinking about all the suffering I went through in the 90s when I would cry every morning before I had to go to work, so I thought I needed to see someone about mental health, but literally all of my problems were caused by not having enough money. So they would put me on SSRI after SSRI that only made me feel sicker because I had plenty of dopamine, all my problems were caused by not having enough money.
So I would push back and say I don’t understand why I’m taking this medication that makes me feel like crap for six weeks just to see if it might make me feel better at that point when the only reason I’m stressed out is because I don’t have enough money. How will this medication help me pay rent or buy food?
The answer was that it will not, it will just make me be able to mentally handle not being able to pay the rent and not having enough money for food, I guess.
So you’re admitting that you were trying to drug me into not caring that I’m going to work in a hellish environment where I’m not even earning enough to pay rent? That’s not something I want to be OK with actually.
I didn’t realize capitalism was the problem, I didn’t realize corporate greed was the problem, I just couldn’t figure out why I was having such a hard time when I did everything I was supposed to do to have a good life, I worked hard, more than one job at a time. I went to college and got a degree in something useful, I would get promoted at my jobs, but as my income would increase so with the rent and I seem to always be paying half my income to rent which meant I was always struggling.
And if any of these clowns were still practicing today I would be sending them hate mail because how dare you decide that I have a mental problem because I’m poor and it’s upsetting to me.
Sorry for my long rant, I just have big beef with psychiatry and anyone who pushes SSRIs on people as a cure all for everything. Especially because I wasn’t depressed I actually have ADHD that I didn’t get treatment for until I was in my 30s. Maybe that’s why I felt I was working so hard for very little results .
