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.
Personal experience with an illness does not qualify you to dispense medical advice. The only person who would be justified in recommending an individualized treatment plan for the OP is the medical doctor/licensed therapist who evaluates him. No one else. Least of all strangers on the Internet.
Well duh, but I admitted my fault later on in the thread.
He obviously wouldn't listen to my advice, think about it.
I'm young, on the internet, and unknown.
