Prozac has been clinically shown to relieve depression in a great number of people.
Seriously though the idea of Heaven isn't appealing.
You can logically realize that these thoughts will only concern you until you die. One second after you die, none of these thoughts will ever matter to you again.
That's kind of a relief in a way.
Not that I'm condoning hastening your own death. Life is pretty grand.
Enjoy it, this is a great show. If Prozac helps you enjoy the show, then take advantage of when and where you live. That you have that option.
Make life enjoyable. Surround yourself with who and what makes you happy.
Heaven? Pbhtt. Lame.
The idea of heaven being my end destination kind of depresses me after so many years of me leaving my belief in it behind.
Life is so much cooler than that idea. So much more "WOW". Reality is where the front row seats are at.
I was on Prozac, it was the most numbing thing in the world. I would never suggest it to anyone. I am on Wellbutrin and Lamictal though.
Anyway, that's not the point. I have been on a somewhat spiritual journey recently. I have discovered many things about myself, the world, others and my destiny. Life is grand, with infinite possibilities. Though, when I have been depressed this question has arisen. Just knowing that there is the light at the end, if I were to believe it, would be something that could comfort someone through tough times.
