Thanks, peeps.
This damn effexor (I refuse to honor it with the capital "E")is quite the catch 22. I must ask both of you if you think this drug is worth the effort. I have found minimal improvement in my depression, and last night's dreaming episode is something I don't want to go through again. I've done prozac, paxil, and effexor, and none have really helped my constant "black" approach to life and living. Sometimes I'd rather embrace the blackness. I have no real confidence in ANY of these drugs, but when I read of people being "happy" I get jealous. I continue to insist that happiness is actually a delusional state, especially considering the reality of our government "leaders" and popular culture. I feel it's all a cruel joke and I have no real reason to "show up" other than the need to make money. How pathetic. I hate capitalism. It sucks the lifeblodd out of everyone. Why should education and health care be for-profit industries? It'sick. I also think democracy is a flawed idea. Look what it got us. I'm sorry to get political, but it' part of why I'm depressed. Why do I get up and go to work? I suppose I should count my "blessings" considering all the people who can't even do that. But I feel that I understand them in some way.
