I think the main problem is that you are trying to feel differently from what you feel, "like everyone else". If you stop trying and just feel your current feelings through and through, you might be surprised when you find relief and even, possibly, joy, but trying to tell yourself how to feel would only frustrate and possibly even shame you. What is th point in doing that?
You're right, it's not a major move at all, which is why I feel ridiculous for feeling like this. I don't know what's wrong with me.

I think I'm actually surprised that everyone's excited. Kinda like, "Wait -- you actually think I can do this?"

Cymbalta, 60mg -- for the depression.
Latuda, 40mg -- for the paranoia (delusional type).
Adderall, 40mg XR & 5 mg reg -- for the ADD.
Xanax, .5 mg as needed -- for the anxiety.
Topamax, 50mg -- still figuring this one out.

MDD, but possibly have some form of Bipolar Disorder. Then again, I could be paranoid . . .

Well, at least I still have my sense of humor.
