We are living in a society where people are constantly crying suicide for attention. Where it is the ones who never say anything about it that end up dead. A society in which it is normal to joke about suicide, rape, murder. Desensitized? No. Insensitive. They never think about the one next to them, listening, the one who thinks about these things everyday. The ones who go through with it. "Oh, how sad. Moving on now." We are living in a society in which everyone is on antidepressants. They pump us full of pills to shut off our brains. "Don't think, just do what everyone else is doing..." Pretending they want to kill themselves, just so people will listen, and comfort, and pay attention to them. But it only lasts so long. It is one thing after another with these people. It just never ends, does it? Of course it does. They cannot escape the death they claim to long for.

This is the machine we feed and then watch it do it's tricks. When the news stops being entertainment maybe we'll stop feeding it entertaining bits of our lives and then be horrified when it treats our horrors as entertainment. It's a pretzel, this relationship between news, entertainment, and real life.
Your observations are quite cogent. "Normal" is a fuzzy word, like "freedom".
Antidepressants and antianxietants (is that a word?) are depressing. I don't take them anymore. However, I stopped taking them verrry slowly, and now when I'm depressed I feel normal.

I've been on and off of antidepressants since 3rd grade, and sadly, still have hope that they will work. I had one that did, but I went and fucked myself over by trying to overdose on them, and now they make me sick.

Obsessed with the images we see in magazines and televison. We get plastic surgery to look like everyone else. We should embrace our individualities.
I refuse to go to doctors or take medication.
I know what's wrong with me and how to fix it to an extent. Some people do need medication but I'm throughly against medicating young children and teens.

Medication causes suicide in teens. Children and teens are highly medicated here.

Insanity is a legal term, not medical. Insanity is not about what you think, it's about what you do.
What have you done?
It can, but not always.

Hopefully, over time, I will be able to fix things without the use of meds.
