That sounds hard. Have you gone to get professional help? Meds can help and so can a good councillor. Hope you can turn it around. Set some goals and something to look forward to, one day at a time and you will get there.
I’ve been in therapy for almost a year. The clinic I go to is AWFUL, but it’s the only place in my area that takes my insurance. So I’m stuck there for the time being. I’ve been on meds for two years. When I first started taking them they worked like a DREAM. My depression is more situational as opposed to chemical at this point. It’s just something I have to deal with. I’ve just been going through a pretty bad depressive episode this month. I don’t really have anyone to confide in. There’s no real solutions.Bullet_with_Butterfly_Wings wrote: »bootyrubsandtacos wrote: »Disclaimer I am NOT suicidal. I’m just really tired of being alive. Iike I am BEYOND exhausted.

Have you ever done or considered regression therapy?
What is that?
Just gotta keep reminding yourself that situations are temporary. Some of us get dealt a bad hand. There is meaning in your suffering, that sounds twisted but you will grow and become a stronger person because of it.

I know how it feels, our situations are different and I don't know you. You have to try and stay positive. Don't give into a confirmation bias and let the negative thinking become a positive feedback loop. Sorry that sounds a lil confusing.

For the person who has been in therapy for a year:
SSRIs are notorious for crapping out, and not all of them work for everyone. Ask your prescriber to ease you off the one you are taking and try another one. I went through all the SSRI medications which would stop working within a year. I have been taking Cymbalta for 15 years and it hasn't quit yet. Will your clinic permit you to try a different therapist. I went through 3 before I found the one that really helped me.
As far as what is on my mind: My stepson seems to believe that there is a magic shortcut to success. He is in his mid-40s with a wife and three kids. He needs to understand that there is no magic - it takes hard work and commitment, and powering through hard times. He's not saving any money for his kids education, nothing towards retirement, has no health insurance. His life is a house of cards that could crash at any moment.

Are there any groups or people that we can get together with in our areas, for workouts or motivation? I have found that working out with like minded people keep you motivated and on track. When I lived in Michigan and worked at G.M. I had many buddy's that I worked out with. I never missed a workout because, I didn't want to let anyone down. Talking with like minded people while you are working out makes time fly by. Now days people have their ipods and tune people out. I was walking with my wife and now she has lung cancer she can't walk without getting out of breath. The chemo has taken all of her energy and I miss walking and talk with her.3

i know it bothers u that I’m not bothered and i’m sorry but i’ve been waiting to feel better for too long to really be sorry about it
