@Omega— I wasn't making a recommendation by any means.
But if you were on antidepressants, that sounds like something that might be a side effect worth bringing up to the doctor. Not the case apparently, so, moot. Just looking out for you.
I'm not an advocate of recreational drug use myself, but I did take an antidepressant/antianxiety (Paxil) for a few months to a year or so when I was diagnossed with depression/anxiety and it worked out very well for me. It "fixed" my "mood" enough so that I had the confidence and the drive to do actual things that had a tangible and positive influence on my life (get a job, start a relationship, move out of my mom's house), and then I no longer needed it because I had effected actual positive change. Even though I've since moved on from that job, that relationship, and that apartment (living at home with my parents again actually), it enabled me to start a chain of events that put me in a better place.
Like when you pick up a bug and then set it down on the ground again five feet away. It still keeps scurrying around on its own, but in a different place.
