Antidepressants

in OCD4 years ago

I was born in a small town near Danube, and I love this lake on the shore of it, created by the mighty old river. I held it in my heart wherever I moved and can't have enaugh of it.

I'm also quite lucky to be living like 15 meters away from the cliff of the water and it's my favorite neighbour. I simply love it.

I love it even more during golden hour times like the ones in these pics when you can somehow breathe the ZEN of it. The water's calmness, the silence, the splashy waves and the golden skies are the best therapist one could have.

If most of the depressed folks out there would simply stop for a second, get their heads out of that hamster spinning wheel and witness such majestic moments, big pharma wouldn't sell a damn anti depressant pill.

The earth has a cure for everything but we seem to have found a disease for its every cure. Why we don't turn our attention the other way? I guess we like suffering... but look at those clouds and this calm water...

...feel its magic, resonate with it, and tell me nothing's changed in you...

I love it when people without mental illness say if only people would look at nature for a minute their depression would be lifted.

I wish it were so simple and it's naive to think it is.

If someone reads this, goes outside and looks at something other people think is beautiful and still feel dead inside what should we do then??

Exercise, proper sleep, medication and talk therapy help but without big pharma making antidepressants that work I probably wouldn't still be alive today.

Downvoted because it's dangerous to suggest the earth can heal medically diagnosed diseases.
And the implication that people with depression choose suffering. You don't know what you are talking about.

If you wouldn't say the same, i.e. to reject medical treatment, for someone with heart failure or diabetes or brain tumor please don't stigmatize mental illness more than it already is.

You're photography is nice but it's scary how common your misunderstanding of mental illness is.

I already answered on your comment and now I saw that you took the downvote. No worries and no hard feelings. I totally get your impulse, I had similar ones as well, just that I don't have the HP to ruin some folks posts. I appreciate though your straightforward opinions and wish more users would do the same. Grown ups should be able to have civilized contradictory discussions. You never know what you learn from such an interaction. If everyone would agree everyone we would live in a quite dull world. I can recommend a really nice book that I found quite interesting for the topic: https://www.amazon.com/Remapping-Your-Mind-Neuroscience-Self-Transformation/dp/159143209X.
Have a great day!

I'll check it out thanks, hope you have a good day too!

Thanks. My day is actually almost over. It's 22:45 in here and am about to hit the bed.

I upvoted after reading the comments lol. I think each of us has our own medicine.

Indeed. Not so hard to figure that out it seems 😁
