What should I do? I've been diagnosed with generalized anxiety and depression for half my life but feel weak if I take medication to help control it.
Why would you not take the medicine that is meant to help you fight depression?
Because the world is not kind to soft people.
You shouldn't care what society or other people think of you. The weakness is just a side effect, at the end of the day you are just doing what is best for yourself and that is all that matters.
That doesn't make sense. I need the medication because of all the time I spend taking care of myself.
It seems you are aware of how important the medication is to you, so you should encourage yourself to take it. Don't be concerned about appearing weak. By taking your meds, you're doing what is best for you at this time.
