I really appreciate everyone sharing their stories. I have been on and off antidepressants throughout adulthood (currently on), and I'm weirdly susceptible to arguments against them and always feel guilty about being on them. (Even though I 1000% believe in them for anyone else and would never EVER negatively judge someone for being on them.) My depression has always been mildish, so I can't argue that medication is saving my life. But it does seem to make me hate things a little less--and if a pill helps me to appreciate and make the most of my one and only life, why not take it? So thank you to everyone for these antidepressant shares, which make me feel less guilty for being on them :) Good luck to everyone!

“Hate things less” is a great goal.
