I can understand where you are and what your struggles are. I take about 8 different meds. I’ve tried to quit but I just about went out of my mind. You see, I tried to commit suicide, and was in a coma for a month. I found out that I had to take them. I do understand that you want to fight and I will stand right beside you. I would love to hear from you and how you are feeling. My name is Jo by the way. May God bless you.
I’m glad you’re here Jo. I’ve had clinical depression and situational depression my entire life. Often this is due to head or neck injury. It can be genetic. Use everything available to win. Beat it. I won’t stand for my body to win. Mind and knowledge over body. You are so wonderful to post. I need my meds too but it’s so I don’t hurt someone else. People can make me so irritated. Work in the ER long enough or newborn babies and you’ll want to hurt some deserving idiots out there. I have anger too obviously.
If you have clinical depression there’s nothing to fight. It’s not a mental illness. It’s a physical illness that involves the organ of the brain. If the doctor told you that you were diabetic and said your pancreas was no longer making insulin you would help it. Why is it different when your brain either quits giving you dopamine or norepinephrine? Don’t you think maybe I should help my brain out with something it physically no longer chooses to do? I think a person should take all their weapons into battle. You’re going into battle with a sling shot when a tank and AK47 are needed. The medication doesn’t give you anything. It tells your brain to either make more of something you should be making or stop getting rid of it so quick. These are your battle tools. There are so many people in the world who are mean. Please don’t be mean to yourself. You are worthy of more. You may not need the meds forever. Sometimes it can just be a kick start. Six months. You’ll know you’ve helped yourself in six months. What would it hurt to carry all your weapons into battle?
Best of luck to you my dear💛
I've been suffering with anxiety and depression off and on for about 36 years. I have attempted Suicide as a teenager didn't succeed, I was a Dumb teenager who thought taking any kind of pills would do it. Back then you would be committed, I'm 64 now. I had to retire early from work because of my anxiety. I am in counseling, stopped my medication because it wasn't helping. Also looking for a new psychiatrist. Off and on still I wish to not wake up. So look into counseling and importantly Don't talk to family and friends they don't want to hear it TRUST me. It's happened to me. Not even my kids want to spend time with me.
