so I have lately had more of a meltdown with my mental health symptoms, and have been struggling every single day to stay positive, and keep doing what's best for my health, going on walks, drinking water, eating healthy, all while still trying to manage all the anxious thoughts. I told one of my friends about my situation, and they always send me inspirational quotes, and they seem so supportive, but today they asked me if I had anything holding me back, habits or anything weighing me down. it was a tough question. but anyway, after talking, I told him I have a chemical imbalance, and I need medication to stay stable. He then says that anyone can push through depression without meds, and it's not an imbalance, just a lack of purpose.... ? it made me feel, like, I agree with him, but he stopped replying. Is he really my friend ?
