They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be.

    Ah my gp prescribed it to me today. He asked about my sleep. I said I go sleep @ 1. Then said then I just over sleep. Then he was like okay I’ll give you mirrazpine to take before bed. He said it like it’s a night aid when I said I over sleep. Now I’m confused. Google says it’s an antidepressant but already on anti depressant

    @Shaunie it is an antidepressant but it can be a sedative as well so can help if you struggle to fall asleep. I got prescribed it because I needed to try antidepressants again and had also been struggling a lot with sleep. Apart from the extra sleep and really weird dreams I've had no other side effects.

    Omg. The last thing I need is a sedative affect :(

    It's an anti depressants with a sedative. I've been on it for ages now. 
    @independent_ nah I get really bad acid reflux on it though.

    @Shaunie yeah it’s usually prescribed if you have insomnia. Seems strange that you’d get it if you oversleep, but maybe your GP thinks it’d help you in some other way cause it works a bit differently to antidepressants like citalopram, sertraline etc?

    I’ve never heard of someone been on two antidepressants surely that isn’t right.  I take propranolol aswel

    Yeah it’s weird. It’s like they want me to just sleep as I will cause less drama then. They tell me to take promethazine aswell which knocks me out which they know so why would I do that. 

    I take citalopram and propranolol

    @GreenTea ohh that’s interesting I haven’t had any other side effects other than the  dreams (my dreams were mental anyway but these are insane). They’re not necessarily bad they’re just weird. But my GP said it’s less likely to make you feel sick than other antidepressants which is better for me cause I’m a bit of a sick phobic!
