  • Tomorrow I start on anti-depressants, specifically fluoxetine to try and mitigate my social anxiety. I've never taken any behavior-modifying medications before and Jen came up with a good idea to establish a baseline of sorts.

    hey Brian, Rick here. Been battling depression on my own since I was a teen. 2014 something snapped and I started getting help from the VA. for just over a year I have been using Fluoxetine and it has helped a lot. Been feeling a lot more "normal"days. The only side effect I have is the dry mouth, so have lots of water ready.

    I like the style of editing in these. It feels a lot more natural than the much more common style of vlog to cut every 3 seconds.

      I appreciate it! Whenever I think of jump cutting I just think back to when I did that back in 2012 and how much I hate looking at those videos now. Sometimes it’s unavoidable, but I take more than a sane amount of time trying to find a way around it.

    Hey Bryan! I haven't been in the Discord for a while, and may not be for a while again, but I wanted to drop some encouragement for you on this topic! My mom takes medicine for mental health, and it can be a challenge, that is true. But when you have support around you, both in your social connections and in medical staff that know how to prescribe medication properly and oversee your treatment, you can become a version of yourself that overcomes those otherwise seemingly impossible challenges. I hope this is a "Part 1" for you, and that months or years down the road, you can look at this and see how far you've come. Wishing you the best!
    P.S.: Your video editing has been great, but the left audio channel is weirdly muted for me? Has been for several of your videos now, not sure if it's me or you, figured I'd ask.

      Hey Steven, thanks for the well wishes and for the comment on the video. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I'll be more aware of it with my next video.
