Hi /r/depression, let's check in.

Understandable. I've had similar experiences. I'm just glad you're able to use that time none-the-less.

Oh wow, yeah that's tough. I'm sure you're going through withdrawal because your brain isn't getting that extra dosage of happy chemicals it needs and it's not used to it. But maybe it'll start realizing it has to make its own happy chemicals now. Doctor needs to be a little more sympathetic, methinks. Maybe look into therapy in the mean time to help you cope. And I understand where you're coming from completely. Like you get synthetic happiness but can't get the real deal.

Thats awful, he needs to be your support system, your cheerleader! That's what partners do.

Boyfriend understands depression because he's struggled with it on and off. But says there's nothing he can do for me so I guess he just.. doesn't. And then I feel lonely. Like it's 2:20am and he has work in less than 6 hours but he's still on League. That's how much it takes priority. I fucking hate League Of Legends

Thank you so much!
