> You said you are off of meds. You aren't on any at all? Sometimes if you stop taking them suddenly you can get something known as akathesia which is a feeling of painful agitation and restlessness. If you want to get off of these medicines because of fear of long term effects (quite a prudent thing to do), you should get off of them slowly.

> They say it is a chemical balance thing. But really, that is bull, I bet if you got a million dollars right now, you wouldn't be so depressed anymore would ya? Even though past memories would still be there, you at least wouldn't be trapped.If I got a million dollars right now, I could not experience any pleasure at the idea. I would be just as depressed and just as scared as I am right now.
