I tell them I don't feel like myself.
They tell me it's just a faze I'll be fine in a few days.
I tell them I feel empty.
But they don't listen to me.
I tell them I think I'm depressed.
They just nod and write something down.
I tell them I'm feeling hopeless.
They give me medicine.
I tell I don't want it.
The tell me it will make me better.
I take it and come back days later.
They ask how I'm feeling?
I tell them I feel nothing.
They tell me that's good then it means your not feeling depressed.
I tell them they're right I don't feel depressed but I'm numb to everything.
That's fine they tell me, it means the medicine is woking, and it's normal to feel numb.
I tell them I don't like this medicine, I don't do anything I use to love, I don't draw, write or listen to music.
They nod and smiley proudly at me, but you don't feel depressed anymore and that's all that matters, They tell me
I tell them their right I don't feel depressed anymore, but I don't feel like I'm alive either.
They still smile and show me the door, telling me if I'm not feeling depressed anymore then their job is done.
I walk out and watch as another girl walks in, her eyes just as lifeless as mine are now.
I might not feel depressed anymore, but I don't feel like I'm living.
All I feel is numb, like they said it's better then feeling depressed, right?
A/N I knew are girl when I was a teenager that had depression, her mother made her take a medicine that made her numb to everything, I remember asking her why she didn't draw anymore, and she told me she's numb to everything now but her mom was happy so that was all that mattered to her. I remember telling her she might not feel depressed anymore, but she's not living anymore either. I really wished her mother could have seen what the medicine was doing to her before it was too late. Unfortunately she took her own life a few weeks after, the saddest thing about it was the note she left, it said at least you were happy mom.
It made me wish people would see what some of the medicine does to people, that's one reason I refuse to get medicine, I'm already feel numb at times I don't need some medicine making it worse. Anyway thanks for the reads and I hope y'all enjoyed it.-skellington_girl95
