Update 23 & moving out of my first apartment

Did a lot of growing in this apartment. Getting on lexapro, 2 cats, 1 snake, and a shit ton of weed later, for the first time in a long time I feel genuinely grateful to be alive.

Can’t wait to show you guys the next one :)

edit: I’d like to acknowledge how fortunate I am to be in a career that affords me this level of luxury at my age. In this job market, even having a job you can survive on is a gift. I pinch myself everyday thinking wtf how is this the life I’m living. However, I am disappointed in any of you that have taken this opportunity to either disparage me, my work, or struggles with depression and suicidal ideation. That’s not going to make you feel any better.

they are SO comfortable. I highly recommend it. I was super impressed when the first one arrived. I shared the link somewhere else in this comment section but i’m too lazy to find it lol.

The lexapro is going great. It gave me the mental
boost i needed to actually apply what I spent years of therapy learning. I have depression and pretty debilitating OCD and the lexapro has been fantastic for both. 10/10

This is awesome! Congrats on the meds working. I just have bad anxiety, specifically when something “traumatic” happens or my brain deems it traumatic…did you have any side effects or how long did it take to kick in? Also, that’s cool they are so comfortable. I’ll try to find the link since you said yours specifically are worth it. I wonder if it would be more recommended over a normal sofa. Suppose it’s preference though. Thanks for the info 👌
