Its that time of year again [Depression Update]

[DJ Charizard]

Unfortunately, this time around it isn't good news. Im dealing with a lot of stress and life issues. My medication has been increased to 75mg (was originally 25mg) and its caused a noticeable change in my social and physical interactions with others. School has been a major cause of my problems but really there is nothing I can do about it.

I've felt for a long time that I've wanted to give up and legit just kill myself, but I've always found something to keep me hanging in there. I came close to ending it all a couple of weeks ago, and I don't want to go through that again.

Even though I say that I have had a majority of negative things happening to me, there have been some positive situations. My birthday recently went over pretty well. I've had the people close to me really help me throughout my situation, and I hope that everything turns around for me soon.

I can't speak for anyone else but most of my stress comes from procrastination. Like I get a bunch of work and then don't do it til a few days before it's due and then have an insanely stressful weekend. So I'd recommend you try to set aside some specific time for schoolwork, like, you only do it from 6-7:30 unless you're already finished. Certainly boring, but also a lot less stressful.

If you get sick of working on mundane things and want to go play videogames I'd recommend you try picking up a good audiobook or listening to an engaging podcast like Serial while you work. Audiobooks have made me excited to do mundane things.

On a similar subject, I had to interview a woman who faced discrimination for an essay, but I forgot so now I'm gonna make one up. I wonder if they'll notice.
