When Iโm on meds, I get out of bed, I take care of myself, Iโm productive, Iโm cheerful, upbeat + adventurousโฆ Iโm a completely different person. Suicide doesnโt even come to mindโฆ regardless of this, I know itโs artificial altho I was once like this, Iโd still never procreate.

The body is a chemical factory. If you take certain chemicals which help the body to function better, that's not 'artificial' but merely adjusting the chemical balance of the system.

Thatโs a good way of looking at it. I donโt feel so bad now. Iโm happy I finally made the conscious decision to give meds a go again. My friend with good intentions got me off them but I suffered to the point I feel like Iโm dying. I hate the fact being human means being so weak.

The body is a biological machine. Sometimes, it needs adjustments, additives, alterations and so on. Nothing wrong with that. Care must be taken in these adjustments, though, so as not to damage the body's capabilities even further.
Glad youre feeling better

If you've found the right balance for your body to function at its optimal performance, let it be.

All I need to balance now is my sleep + I need some self-discipline around diet + exercise. If I can get those right, then my life will be at the best it can possibly be.

Iโve been suffering for years - I seem to see the world clearly for what it is when Iโm sober + I face my demons soberly but you can only put up a fight so much before it takes you down. I have an appointment with my new psychiatrist in about 3 weeks regarding my bad sleep.

Ya gotta pace yourself when fighting demons. Sometimes, a ceasefire is in order lol. A peace talk with your demons might be just the thing. Ya can't kill a demon, anyway. They'll just burrow back down in the deep dark unconscious & return to fight another day.
