I’m struggling a lot lately with my mental health. My anxiety and depression have been on and off through the roof and I’m struggling to keep it together. I’ve been on citalopram 20mg for about 7-8 years and it was working for me but more recently I’ve felt like it’s not doing as much as it used too since my anxiety has been elevated. I’ve been debating looking into a psychiatrist since I’ve never been too one and was prescribed the citalopram by my general practitioner. I have Xanax as well that I can use as needed but I try not to use it because I don’t want to rely on it. I just started back with seeing a counselor again and am hoping that will help but I feel like I’m in a dark tunnel and idk how to get out.
Lately I feel like my thoughts have been dark since my trauma a few weeks ago. I think like “what’s the point of life” and feeling like I’m not important. I feel like everyone around me has so much going for them and I don’t. I don’t have a boyfriend or husband, I don’t have kids, my best friend is my grandma and I’m scared of life without her. Honestly I feel like a loser and I hate this feeling.
