Irritated, angry, confused

[wickedlovley28]

Like I said in a previous post, I have been feeling bad this week and nobody in my life is taking me seriously or even seem to care not even my doctors. I feel like as soon as a doctor finds out I have depression and anxiety they don't take any of my problems seriously and write them off as anxiety, all they ever want to do is push pills at me. Even my own husband told me Just now that my heart palpitations were not palpitations but probably something else. It's so frustrating. I don't know what to do.

Keep pushing to get help. You are your best and sometimes only advocate. I'm sure your family loves you dearly, but they might not understand. Keep pushing for answers and help!

I'm so sorry to hear this but other folks who don't experience what we do don't really understand. Plus most doctors are not empathetic, they just treat with meds. Finding a therapist might be very helpful for you. Can you do that?

Yeah I've been looking.

I feel you with that, trying to tell others your feelings and then just not getting it or understanding, it can get me feeling lonely. But the way your feeling is true and failed, no matter what anyone says you know how you feel and what you need. It’s a journey and a long one, keep looking, you’ll find what you need. Plus posting on here is great, being surrounded by people who get it.

I am sorry you are going through this. Have you tried talking with a doctor that specializes in depression and anxiety? They may be able to help with what you are going through. I hope everything gets better!
