Required reading for anyone who feels like they are being driven crazy by politics. Good stuff.

When I was in detox they tried to prescribe me some meds but I don't trust em.

They didn't even talk to me that much or do a proper psych evaluation. I probably checked a box that says "sometimes I feel depressed" or something. They hand out pills like it's candy.

Then on top of that they wanted to prescribe me sleeping pills. I told them I don't have trouble sleeping and they were like "just in case." Just in case? You know I'm in here for substance abuse right?

Yeah I kind of feel like psych meds have the same problem as plastic surgery. They forget what normal looks like and just keep adding more hoping to fix the mess they’ve made.

The real problem is that people keep getting prescriptions for mental health from people that aren't in a mental health profession.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

Getting good affordable therapy in the US is pretty much impossible. 1/3 of my paycheck goes to therapy and medications (one of which I can't get anymore due to monetary reasons) because insurance companies can't be ****ed.

**** is rough, and I hope you'll be able to get off that waitlist soon.
