Internal Battle

July 6th, 2007 by jason

I have this current ongoing battle with myself.  I want to go out and do things but have to fight myself to do so.  I AM up every invitation that comes my way but do not find myself going out alone.  Still stuck in the house, I have let it go to hell and had to hurry up and organize/clean it the day before my mom came down to visit.  I am pretty sure I’m pretty depressed, but these damned drugs hold back a lot of emotions.  Anxiety is ever present, albeit muffled by by anti-anxiety drugs.  Minor anger and irritability come through but I really feel that high levels of anti-depression drugs keep us from experiencing the good emotions.  It’s a theory that these drugs lessen emotional sensations, including that of the libido.  It could explain why many people experience a lack of sexual want, desire, and action while on these drugs.
