Ok well if what's wrong with your life can't be fixed,
then I guess you just have to make the best out of a bad job. Although I found that anti-depressants didn't even cheer me up, they just stopped me caring.

That's what they do.
They're not "happy pills", as many people assume.

Yeah,
actually I thought that felt worse. I almost completely stopped functioning when I was on them, I'd just sit for hours staring at the wall because I didn't care about anything enough to do anything, and I really couldn't see how my life was ever going to improve like that. If you want to change things, you've got to care about them. When I eventually stopped them, it was like suddenly I could think again!
