Feeling lost: Depression sucks the life out of me.

2 Replies

I'm new here....I've battle with undiagnosed depression since I was 12 (now 20) Last September I finally saw a dr about it and she put me on lexapro and then switched to Amitriptyline 50mg. This past week has been hell. The other day I almost took all my pills just to end things. Thoughts keep running through my mind non stop and everything seems to come crashing down all at once. I'm tired of battling this depression and I don't know what else to do. I've talked with multiple people and tried things that might take my mind off things going on. I would take a hike by myself, go for a walk, listen to music, try and get some good rest and try to enjoy being with people. But nothing is helping. I feel like I'm getting worse and my depression gets worse at night and I'm not sure why that is. I just don't know what to do anymore. I just want this depression to go away because it's consuming every part of my life.
