I am now on some medications for my depression and feeling worthless. They have helped. I don’t feel as bad as before. But I don’t like the medicines. They do things to you. Like making you drowsy and tying up your tongue. And they dull your responses, physical and emotional. So sometimes I cheat. I skip the medicines. I can do that for up to one week. Then I need them again, or I become the old self. So here is the new avatar of myself, the loner forever.
