Feeling low and sad and lonely for family.

Depression creeping in on me again. As bad as it was in 1994 except now I don't have my parents to comfort me (talk to). I have been on the same antidepressant since then, sertraline, and I've tried ability but that did nothing.

I also have agoraphobia and IBS and I just want to stay in bed, asleep. I will talk to my psychiatrist about adding a new antidepressant, but fear the side effects.

I don't know why I'm posting this, I'm just lonely for my family.

Thank you for reading.

Hi Kathish, Are you speaking to a therapist by any chance? It is not uncommon for anyone without family around to feel lonely. there are mental skills you can build. This is where a therapist can help.

Not what you're looking for?
