Recently me and my father went to a psychiatrist because of reasons both of us are experiencing, reasons which i'd rather not talk about.
I didn't know he was robot levels of bad because he, like me, doesn't like to open up to people, can't trust them.
So we got our consult and the doc told us we're borderline MDD with severe anxiety problems
We've started taking anxiety meds today, because of the illness i had the chance do bond a little more with my him, so we trust each other enough to share feelings now.
Both of us stated that we were feeling better, but the dosage was really small we couldn't tell with precision.
does it really work or does it just numb the pain? i don't wanna see my father in the same boat as me.
