Helpless ,low!

I feel quite low and helpless bcoz i have lost my concentration abilities, memory and thinking skills which are required to do basic tasks and complex tasks at work. None of the meds helped me with those symptoms. Today i feel very demotivated since I can't understand a single sentence which i am reading. This concentration ,memory part sucks. I don't know if i have ADD or just depression. Needs help guys! I am in crisis here 😰😓😓😫

OMG this is me exactly!! I have been able to hide it bc of the job I have but at some point it will be impossible to hide. It affects every aspect of my life. I just cry! I can't find the words when I speaking and I can't feel joy. I think its from years of SSRIs. I have been stepping down to quit taking them bc they dont help me at all anymore and i can't help but think they are the reason im in this state. I have been researching the new treatment which is Psychedelics. Do some reading on Ketomine, mushrooms, LSD. Seriously-at low doses in a controlled environment doctors are seeing amazing results! Apparently they work on a completely different part of the brain. Depression and anxiety are not only dopamine and serotonin. I have appointment in 2 weeks to discuss Ketamine w my Dr. Lets stay in touch!

I goes through multiple deppresion and anxienty the last 17 years. Medication like xanax and valium help for awhile.

Give a try Electro Cranial Therapy. A tiny device past through your earlobe.

Its works for me.

Thank you
