A place to find comfort

Hello. My name is Susan, and I am dedicating this blog to the millions of people across the world who need to take an antidepressant in order to live a normal, healthy life.

There is so much out there about how we are quick to run to medication just for being a little sad. It's taken me years, literally, to accept that every other non-medicinal method of treating this illness does not work for me.

The truth is, living with depression is no different than living with high blood pressure. Sometimes, medication is the only thing keeping a person alive.

I'm one of those people. And my goal with this blog is to create a space for others in the same boat... especially those who feel that needing medication to survive somehow makes them less of a person.

Welcome to my blog for the Medicated Many. Together, we can help change the way many perceive a real disease.
