I listen to the recommendations of my doctor and continue to take the antidepressant "Escitalopram", and I clearly realize that I'm not likely to give it up. This medicine became an integral part of my life, for 11 years it helped me to control my illness. I take Escitalopram in a small dose, and I do not see the need to suspend treatment. Maybe it's a placebo, but I do not want to take risks. Moreover, I do not see anything in this shameful that it is necessary to hide, it needs to be paid attention and treated! People are used to distinguishing psychological diseases from "physical", so-called "real", but this is fundamentally wrong! Of course, we can not see a concrete physical manifestation, visible and tangible, but this does not mean that it does not exist. People with similar diseases, like me, have to prove why? If the medicine can help me and others in the treatment, then let it be the point. At the age of 19, I had suspicions of a brain tumor, the tests did not bode well, but thanks to the work of a neurologist and a psychologist, I can live a full life. It is important that I realize that now many of my fears are groundless or do not have a real basis, it gives me optimism.

I tolerate uncertainty and criticism. In me at once there is a feeling of emptiness and age-old questions: "What am I doing here? I do not need anyone. Why do you take pictures of me? "I understand that this is stupid, but this is part of me, with which I fight.
