What do you do to cheer yourself up?

For some reason I seem to always be in a sad mood, and even when I try to do stuff I normally enjoy I can't get into it and have fun with how draged down I am. I'm starting to get scared as people are starting to mention it and ask. What am I becoming...

Hm. Should I make the "wtf/ok what is google" joke or not? No. That would be too negative in this comment section. I go with "Please don't take any drugs agains this problem if they weren't prescribed to you by a real doctor specialized in these things."
 
Venlafaxine is a selective serotonin retake inhibitor. Causes serotonin (naturally occurring chemical that effects mood) to stay in the brain longer. I believe this drug is also a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, used for nerve pain.

@WeedZ correct. Unfortunately if you don't take it consistently the withdrawl smacks you like a bag of bricks. I really don't recommend starting it if you can avoid it

@leonmagnus99
does it ever suddenly hit you when your around others and you suddenly loose intrest in what's going on and feel distant from those around you that you were just interacting with?


@drenal
and you don't have any side effects from it? my school says I supposedly have aspergers(minor autism) and adhd, I still call bs on it but they did try to put me on a medication for it in elementary school, lets just say it didn't go well....at all, disclaimer before I say more is that under a normal state of mind I would NEVER say this but, for some reason midway through class I screamed "I don't deserve to live" and started crying...they cut it off emediatly. The next year they tried a different medicine and the same thing happened but at home. it is scary as hell what medicine can do to you, I'm glad they cut it off as I can't even begin to imagine how or why I would be suicidal at any point in my life *shiver*

@jt_1258 if it was an ssri its not surprising. It's actually really common for an anti-depressant to have an extreme, and opposite than intended, effect. Usually they just keep trying one after the other with different dosages until they find a combination that works.

no, it wasn't for depression, and if anything, elementary school was the more happy years of my life...which is a tad odd since it wasn't till highschool that I finally had friends but still. like I said, it was for the aspergers & adhd they say I supposedly have
