I think you're discrediting yourself by talking about dark places and opening your parentheses with anti-depressants. Not all brains function like they're supposed to, people getting help they need shouldn't be stigmatized. You also make no argument about your take on things being the right one, you just oppose their worldview to yours and call theirs wrong like you know it is rather than just you thinking yours is right. | ||

Not sure if you're up on the literature but the chemical imbalance theory of depression has been disproven (or at least no evidence for it). No one is stigmatizing anything. Just that if you consume doom porn it's likely to affect your attitudes towards life. I think it's a lot healthier to believe you can change your circumstances than to believe you are doomed because you believe you have the wrong brain https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-022-01661-0 https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-cause-of-depression-is-pr... https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2022/jul/analysis-depression-prob... | ||
