I ruined my life with iron pills
I was capable, fit, smart, handsome.
Now I can't sleep without medication, find no enjoyment in anything, have decreased mobility, low sex drive, feel retarded and take high dosages of SSRI to stave off suicide.
When I took a few over just one week my stomach was in pain, but I didn't do anything, I thought it would clear up. It didn't. It got much worse.
I was in a foreign country and covid was kicking off when it happened so maybe that's why I didn't do anything
The pain was so bad I was going insane, I got sectioned and sent to a loony bin for two weeks. I would pace around in a wood wondering what I'd done, why this happened to me, I was largely disowned by my family, medical services wouldn't even give me an endoscopy until 7 months later, all too late.
I gave myself ulcers and gastritis, all from a few iron pills I didn't even need. The symptoms are horrendous, I wouldn't wish this on a worst enemy. But it gets treated as nothing very serious by doctors, you find support groups on Reddit and Facebook but it's all just talk about supplements and noone seems to have any actual cure.
I'm stuck like this, in this shitty dimension, until I end it.
