Overwhelming depression

I am going through one of my usual episodes where I get so severely depressed. It is taking a lot of energy just to type this but I need an outlet right now... I’ve been crying nonstop for the last 30 minutes or so... I cannot sleep. Maybe I should take my Xanax. But I hate taking it. I don’t know. I’m rambling at this point. I’m sorry.

Hi 👋🏻 Is there anything that’s been on your mind that’s causing this depression?

It’s usually about the abuse I endured as a kid by my mother. I usually talk to my therapist but he is out this week so I didn’t have my normal session.

I am so sorry about the state and feelings you are feeling now that is so hard to deal with. I am impressed that you reached out for support even when it was so hard fo you. Would it help to let your therapist know that it is really hard for you when he is unavailable for a week and does he have any suggestions for what to do if this happens again. Sometimes if therapists work at a clinic someone can fill in for them if they have to be out.

Don't be sorry for venting. Everyone needs someone to talk to. But I do recommend meditation, or maybe cbd products? It helps when I'm in a dark spot. I'm here for you though.

Yes, overwhelming depression is affecting me also. Things have gotten so bad I signed up for online therapy after finding a $200 discount. I really can't afford it, but I don't know what else to do. These past 3 years have been very difficult and a waste of time really. I've gone through the motions like a robot just existing desperately trying to find some way to feel more normal. I feel like my sanity has been stretched thin and I have grown weary. I need to feel better. Wishing you well to find relief and recovery.

If you are not taking your medications regular the drug will not work efficiently, you will not get better and your underlying condition will be more problems So take your tablets as discussed.
