So I have been thinking about this mental health thing. My therapist wants me to see a shrink the get medicine because of my depression. I am having a hard time with accepting this just like always. Especially now. I am thinking to myself, why would I put this chemical in my body when I have gotten rid of most garbage and chemicals in my diet to include alcohol. I don't even like my daughter being on medicine, but with her she can't see her way out. I on the other hand know that I can get better and know there are other ways to fix this, but some might think I am even crazier for believing in those "odd" ways.
The other reason I have reservations is because I have tried antidepressants and have always had bad side effects. I knew not to take them, but I didn't want to seem crazier to the military. Now I am a civilian so I have the right to say no.
So here I am, wondering what to do. I don't have the time to research and implement "alternative" medicine, but I also do not want to take the short road with antidepressants. I wish I had a life style that allowed me to be a simple person with a simple life. I know that I could make it happen, but my family would hate me! Oh well...I guess I have to make a hard decision!
