I didn’t want to go on meds for the first year that my depression broke. Finally it got to the point where I would try anything. They put me on Lexapro and told me it would take a month to feel something.
Three nights later, I was watching Harry Potter with my mom and my sister, and I realized, shit, why do I feel so weird? Realized it was that I was just watching the movie. Wasn’t obsessing, wasn’t in my feelings, I could just...watch the movie. For the first time in forever.
Meds aren’t for everybody, but for me, they gave me the space to figure shit out.
