Let's take medicine when we're depressed. - Ch. 1

Cool story bro. Unfortunately it's tons more complicated than that, though it's true that it's different for everyone. Not every medicine works for everyone, not every doctor is good for every person, but if you have prescribed medicine, you should definitely not stop taking it without talking to your doctor first, so there is that.

I think society and social media makes us pseudo-depressed. We're sad, not because of chemicals in our brain, but because we get upset some have it better than us.

@Manthika
What makes you think doctors should know better than ourselves. We make things more complicated than need be.

@smolbaka Are you trying to honor your name with that doctor comment or did it not come out as you intended it to?

THEY ARE DOCTORS, THE WHOLE SCHTICK IS THAT THEY STUDIED FOR YEARS IN ORDER TO KNOW BETTER ABOUT HEALTH THAN THE AVERAGE DUDE WITH INTERNET ACCESS.

It is true we make things more complicated, but that doesn't mean you should ignore the advice of the medical experts and auto-medicate yourself; juat because you feel a bit better doesn't mean you actually got better.

Please don't say such irresponsible things again, this is a manga about an actual serious condition that endangers people's lives.

Big pharma lobby's for society to be on drugs that harms us more than helps but you're not ready for that conversation.

Well, if a reader here wants to take medical advice on the internet, let it be THAT YOU DONT TAKE MEDICAL ADVICE FROM RANDOS ON THE INTERNET!

That whole "doctors and 'big pharma' just want to put you under drugs" is so stupid and is not helping people getting better. Depression is real! And Medication for it can help (not everyone, but decide that together with your doctor, not alone after reading random pieces on the internet)!
