Sick of taking medication

Hi everyone. I've gotten to the point where I'm just so sick of taking medication just to feel somewhat normal. I really hate this. And it doesn't work miracles or anything. I still see a therapist and now with the Holidays, I am falling into depression. My anxiety level is higher than usual too. I can't wait until December 26! I'm exhausted all the time and in general feel like cr@p. Everyday is such a struggle for me. I feel like such a loser. Ugh. That's my rant for the morning; thanks for listening.

Hey, there! My bf really struggles w anxiety too. Im trying to use any outlet I can to help him, and I think talking to someone who can identify w him would really help us. Any pointers?

Hi! Been there, done that. Know I most likely will need some meds indefinitely, Have spent some Christmas alone by myself. Not even a call. Everyone thought about me, as I usually handled everything rather well. No one actually thought I might not be ok, particularly during the holidays. Made certain that never happened again because the depression can drown me. Make some plans for the holiday, no matter how simple and maybe speak with your doctor that you don't think your meds are helping.

And maybe answering and helping loverneverfails8286 in her reply may give some purpose and realize you have much to offer to someone else. xx
