It was because I knew that as a brown person I would have to work twice as hard as the white man next to me,
I would be a minority for being atheist,
my dad's dying, etc.
And I'd recommend anti depressants but have you seen the side effects.
Take Valium for example.
Side effects:
Fainting
Dizziness
Thoughts of suicide,
Death, etc
Maybe some minor anti depressants would work but in reality they don't solve anything.
I thought this through because I knew that this man's life is in need of help.
I'm not gonna throw out advice that I haven't researched.
FYI, Valium is not an anti-depressant. You clearly haven't researched it too much.
I've been dealing with depression for over two decades, and I wouldn't be here without anti-depressants. I don't have any noticeable side effects, either.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
