There was a study done: 4 groups of people, each different antidepressants. 5th group given placebo. At the end of the study, a whopping 26% of the placebo people reported feeling better. Only 2% of the antidepressant people felt better.
Wow.
Gimme some of them placebos.
Is it possible to overdose on placebos?
Give me a placebo and tell me it's marijuana.

If they take away my antidepressants I'd be dead in a few months. I fall into severe deep depressions very quickly. And, strangely , I also come out of them fast . Its that moment of crisis when you are just at the edge of deciding life isn't worth living, thats when having those meds really count.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
