Most of the people I talked to just saw it as an excuse to get some Ritalin. Those who already took it promised it would open me up to new productivity heights. I never cared about that. I once took some anti-depressants a few years earlier and I hated every minute of it and the withdrawal had be spend a few weeks in total solitary because I felt like my brain had been zombified or something. Never really thought about killing myself that much, back then I could see the allure though.
Had some kind of spiritual awakening afterwards and I’m glad I never touched any medications of this sort ever again.
Meditation, grounding, going on walks, hugging a tree (no joke), cold exposure, full body relaxation excercises and all that have been world changing for me but it’s still a journey. I think you need to be open to that though.
It helped me. No promises it’ll do the same for you. But if you’re open-minded, give it a try. If you’re curious, hit me up and I’ll gladly share some links & details. (I’m not selling anything.)
