What drugs were you given?
dope to cope
What you're describing is called placebo, those drugs take weeks or months to kick in.

I cant remember them off the top of my head (which is weird considering i looked at the labels this morning), but when i get back home i'll give you the names
Your body will get used to it after a few weeks and you won't feel anything anymore.
Hang in there OP I'm rooting for you. Placebo or not anything that helps is good. Show those fucking mental illnesses and your life is yours and yours only to control.

Baby steps.
Finished graduate diploma in communication, surrounded by qt women that don't give a fuck about me in the slightest.
This is after I couldn't get a job with my worthless arts degree with majors in communication and i really hate this shit, I'll never be able to do any job in this field properly and all my high-grades is just lecturers blowing smoke up my ass while getting wagekeked at Woolworths working for shitskins.
I probably should just kill myself because trying to do anything with my life is an exercise in futility

I'm OP.
The drugs prescribed to me were Depakine and Zelax.
>tfw you have a ton of work and studying to do
>Spend three or four hours on bed close to tears doing basically nothing instead because you can't do work like that
O-only two to eight more weeks until the antidepressants start working.
>tfw a group assignment is 25% of the grade for one of my classes
>another 25% is a group oral presentation after christmas
>i know absolutely nobody
