喺月黑风高嘅初四夜晚，无知少女盐焗鸡只身一人闯入结界;佢想揾返当年圣诞消失嘅身影，同一段又苦又甜嘅回忆。喺结界入面，少女只见满地烟灰以及两个庞大嘅身躯。三人六目交投，把酒当歌，谈天文，讲地理同各种尘封已久渐渐潮湿嘅过去。。。

〈Antidepressant〉由 Salty Chick 曲词编监，将抗抑郁药、返工疲劳与解离感，写成一场 Windows 2000 式的逃生梦。
歌曲以 Y2K 电脑游戏感、公司通知声、Teams 讯息声、indie pop 结他与广东话 melodic rap，砌出一个半现实、半失真的 digital fantasy。像一个开太久的电脑桌面，弹窗不断出现，系统仍然运作，但人已经快要离线。
“I don’t wanna wake up” 不只是赖床，也不是单纯想逃避。那是一种食了药之后仍然醒不过来的疲惫：身体在返工，灵魂却 load 不入现实。Salty Chick 把自己困在伦敦 office life 与香港 artist journey 之间，一边被工作消耗，一边又靠工作支撑音乐。
MV 中，主角跌入一个 Windows 2000 式的幻想世界。现实愈沉重，画面愈像游戏；人生愈难醒来，音乐愈像唯一出口。
到 outro 的 “Dissociate from me”，歌曲终于完全沉入梦境。那不是治愈，而是一种短暂抽离：从打工身份、城市疲劳与现实责任之中离线，留在幻想世界里，不想醒返。
With “Antidepressant”, Salty Chick turns corporate burnout into a glitching Windows 2000 fantasy: a sharp single about medication, office life and the urge to disappear into a screen.
Written, composed, arranged and produced by Salty Chick, the track blends Y2K game sounds, Teams-style corporate notifications, indie pop guitars and Cantonese melodic rap. It sounds nostalgic and playful on the surface, but underneath is a darker question: what happens when the life that drains you is also the life funding your escape?
“I don’t wanna wake up” becomes both a mental-health hook and an artist statement. It captures antidepressant fatigue, but also Salty Chick’s split reality between London office survival and her Hong Kong artist world.
The video pushes this into a Windows 2000-inspired digital dreamscape, where work anxiety, old computer games and error pop-ups collapse into one another. Reality becomes a system she cannot exit. Music becomes the only way to log out.
By the outro, “Dissociate from me” lands as the final command: a pop song about using fantasy to survive a life too heavy to load.
