I liked the use of all lower case text. It makes the thoughts and feeling the character is expressing feel flat, like depression often does.

Developer

Absolutely

I really enjoyed the art in this game and the concept was communicated quite well!! It's an excellent subject for the One Room topic.

I'm living with depression right now and I felt like this was a page right out of my journal. I'm curious, why is the game called 'an anti depressant'? Is seeing depressive thoughts altogether in this game supposed to help me gain perspective and see how false the intrusive thoughts are?

Developer

hi, I called the game so because, antidepressants are not a magic pill, and when you start taking antidepressants the disease worsens (I have personally it happens),

and I have a bipolar disorder type 2, 

I hope you will be fine,

and thanks for playing my game!

Ah, I understand now!! It's an ironic title. 

I really liked the game, please make more. I hope you will be happy as well (and your English is great!! don't worry)
