Warning: antidepressants may cause depression
Submitted by joyfulchicken on May 4, 2007 - 12:16am.I'm too lazy to blog today, so I'll just show you an email from one of our young readers. Enjoy.
Hello chickens,
My life sucks.
I've been seriously depressed for quite a while now. And no, the Chicken Mafia doesn't help. You guys just aren't funny enough.
After my last suicide attempt, my doctor gave me antidepressants. I've been taking them everyday, but they just seem to make things worse. I didn't understand why until I saw the warning label on the bottle this morning.
It's true. CNN confirmed it.
So taking antidepressants can actually make me more depressed? And suicidal too? Then what the hell am I taking them for? I was so angry that I flushed all the useless pills down the toilet.
Then I remembered that those pills might not be so useless after all. They might come in handy the next time I try to kill myself--overdosing sounds like a relatively painless way to die. Well, my toilet was clogged, so I managed to stick my hand in there and scoop them out. Yay. But my hand smells like shit now. My life sucks!
I hate you all. I think I'll just go ahead and swallow all those pills now. Goodbye, cruel world!
Huh? "Goodbye, cruel world"? That's so cliche. Is that the best you can come up with? You're worthless. Don't email us again.
