At my high school, there are so many people on antidepressants and ADHD medication.
Sometimes they joke about how they feel when they forget a dose.
My brother is on an antidepressant and I am contemplating taking one as well. My mom thinks I need one to control my social anxiety, and I agree now. I can't write my notes because I can't stop shaking in class. I was bullied every day.
I was prescribed Prozac a few months ago but I never filled the prescription. But now I see how many people are on antidepressants, I think it will be more "normal" for me to take the medicine. Sometimes my brother gets the brain zaps though and I worry I will get these too.
I don't think we have much reason to be happy. We have to get up at about 5:30am to catch the bus. It is dark and cold out. Then we are under cameras all day, and we have to work nonstop or we will get detention.
