Jake in the desert on Nostr: The craziest part of forgetting my depression meds I take at night (it happens) is ...
The craziest part of forgetting my depression meds I take at night (it happens) is how much I feel their loss the next day. I can fully feel my stupid brain SCREAMING nonsense at me just like it has for 30+ years now when it's unmedicated. I'm not sure if I'll ever be used to it, but I can recognize it and understand it. And even just having a slight half-life of the remnants of the previous days' dose (or maybe all the experience with it) helps me better not latch onto the thoughts and they can just pass by easier. It's wild, and I hate it. But here we are 🤣 Thankful for the meds, though. Without them is hell.
