"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I have an appointment today, to get antidepressant meds. I just wanted to see if anyone here has any recommendations. I've only had herbs... in including cannibis and valerian... I'm not sure I even want to take the hardstuff. I'm on medi-cal so the meds are fully covered. What are the downsides?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Some SSRI's can make a person feel edgy and uncomfortable. Wait a week for this one to start taking effect and see how you feel. Not everything works for everyone. Body chemistry differs widely. If current one doesn't feel good for you, try Lexapro. Widely prescribed.

Depression is a state of mind... I believe that any psychological and emotional state can be controlled with willpower once one understands it. You have depression, certainly there are causal factors to this. Identify them, and seek a release from them. Medications may help in stabilizing mood, but they do not actually treat the depression... There is a difference.

Very true. The Meds should be used only short term to get to a more logical, less emotional state so the problems causing the situation can be more clearly identified by the patient.
If that can not be done well internally, then professional therapy would be the next option.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yes, I agree! (There is also spiritual depression, but that borders on religion, right? /sarcasm)

I'm just looking for something to help when the sh1t hits the fan! I'm thinking Zoloft is not for me, because I have to stay on it, for it to work.

I may just go get a bottle of vodka, and call it "done". I just need a little vacation from all the bullsh1t.

If you want something to help on an as needed basis, then SSRI's are not for you. Can't hardly get a script for Valium anymore, but there are other calming options available.

Yes, I was thinking of getting a Medical Marijuana card, and buying some edibles.
