well, yea. obvs

Do make say think - & yet & yet

i wanna smoke blunts, but i can only afford cheap hash right now... so i'm smoking disgusting joints

Meditation is always miserable for me, my anxiety flares up and I wanna lay down and cry and punch something, I'm probably doing it wrong though and depression has rotted my brain so maybe

same for me. but my teacher says thats good. meditation isn't the peaceful crap ppl talk about. its pretty fucking intense

keep doing it friend. you'll breakthrough

Honestly I'd rather just get drunk or pop my antidepressants and be at peace, just seems more efficient

i don't wanna come in like some anti-science nut but i do feel like as long as you're relying on external substances you're not really gonna overcome the root of your issues, no?

IDK, I spent some time on antidepressants and it didn't really help much. i'm not suggesting you can meditate your problems away, but I don't think you should view them as anything more than a tool to give you the initial kick to go to therapy or leave the house get a job or whatever it is you want

and don't drink your problems away, even for drugs alcohol is a fucking terrible way to deal with depression. you'd be better off popping e ffs, at least you'd actually get to be happy occasionally

>you're not really gonna overcome the root of your issues, no?
Way I see it, it's like a wheelchair or a crutch, it's just what I need to use and when you've had your leg blown off it's just what needs to be done, I don't see any shame in it

thats fine tbqh. I myself never felt clean during the comedown of the meds. maybe because my family and gf for years have talked about how badly drugs/meds are that i have pre-existing anxiety.
if it works for you keep at it.
